Coconut Rum-Raisin Bundt Cake with Rum-Caramel Glaze

• 10 ounces (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, plus more for the pan
• 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
• 1 cup raisins
• 3/4 cup dark rum
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
• 6 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
• 1 cup granulated sugar

1. Preheat the oven to 325F.
2. Butter a 12-cup Bundt pan; dust with flour, tapping out excess.
3. Soak the raisins in 1/2 cup rum.
4. Whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder; set aside.
5. Put the butter and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; cream on medium speed until smooth.
6. Mix in the eggs, 1 at a time.
7. Add the vanilla.
8. On low speed, mix in the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with 2 additions of 6 tablespoons cream each (12 total).
9. Mix in the raisin mixture and the coconut.
10. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan; smooth the top.
11. Bake, rotating about halfway through, until a cake tester comes out clean, about 1 hour 55 minutes.
12. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack 20 minutes.
13. Run a thin knife around the sides of the cake; unmold.
14. Let cool.
15. Heat the granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat, gently stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and the syrup is clear.
16. Cook, without stirring, until the syrup comes to a boil, washing down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystals from forming.
17. Let boil, gently swirling, until medium amber.
18. Remove from heat.
19. Carefully pour in the remaining 1/4 cup rum and 2 tablespoons cream.
20. Let cool, stirring, until thickened.
21. Drizzle over cake.
