📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 325°F/165°C. Grease a 10- inch bundt pan with butter or shortening very liberally. Dust the pan with flour and set aside.

2
Place all the cake ingredients in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low for ⏱️ 30 seconds and then increase the speed to medium and mix for ⏱️ 3 minutes.
3
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for ⏱️ 65-75 minutes until a toothpick entered into the center comes out clean.
4
When the cake is done make the glaze. Combine all ingredients into a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir continuously until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Do not bring to a boil.

5
Poke holes all over the warm cake using a knife and pour the glaze evenly on the cake while still in the pan.
6
Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan and then invert the cake onto a serving plate.

I actually like to make this cake a day in advance, finding it to be more moist and flavorful when it rests overnight.
