Cherry Delight Bundt Cake
- Cake:
- 1 cup - Vegetable Oil
- 4 large - Eggs
- 1 Box - Cherry Bit Cake Mix
- 1 Box - Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix
- 1 cup - Hot tap water
- 1 1/2 tbsp - Cherry Extract
- Glaze:
- 2 cups sifted - Icing Sugar
- 1 tbsp - Soft Butter
- 1/2 tsp - Cherry Extract
- 1/2 tsp - Vanilla Extract
- 2 tablespoons - Milk
- Cake:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2. Place all cake ingredients in a bowl in the order above.
- 3. Mix on medium for 5 mins, stirring occasionally.
- 4. Oil a bundt pan using paper towel and vegetable oil. Make sure to get into cracks of the pan. This ensures easy removal and keeps any pattern intact.
- 5. Pour mixture into lightly greased budnt pan and bake for 45-55 mins.
- 6. At 45 min mark, check cake by inserting toothpick into middle of bundt cake. If the toothpick comes out clean cake it done. If you feel it needs a few more mins, rotate cake and cook for an additional 5-10 mins.
- 6. Allow to cool in the pan for 15-20 mins.
- 7. Use a butter knife to loosen cake from sides of the pan and turn upside down to remove onto a flat plate.
- Prepare Glaze:
- 1. In a small bowl combine sugar and butter.
- 2. Whisk in extract (1/2 cherry, 1/2 vanilla, or all cherry if you dare!)
- 3. Add milk gradually to achieve desired consistency.
- 4. While cake is still fairly warm slowly spoon 1/2 of the glaze evenly on top of the cake, allowing it to run down the sides. This will absorb into the cake.
- 5. Allow too cool for 15-30 mins (should still be warm) and pour rest of glaze on top of cake evenly.
- Wrap cake in plastic wrap tightly and place in fridge overnight. This step is vital. I find it significantly adds to the flavour and moisture.
- Remove cake from fridge (but leave wrapped) 30 mins before you intend to serve it.
- Can be served with canned icing on the side for people with a really sweet tooth!
