Homemade bourbon cake recipe from a vintage cookbook. This easy recipe is about as Southern as you can get! Pecans add a buttery richness to the moist bundt cake and top the sweet bourbon glaze. Soaked in bourbon, too!  The baking technique is what makes it so good. Easy recipe.

bourbon

Confectioner's sugar

Have all ingredients at room temperature before beginning.

Grease a bundt pan and add about 1/4 cup sugar.

Move the bundt pan around and gently shake until the sugar coats the pan.

Pour out any excess sugar.

Preheat the oven to 325F.

Cream the butter and 2 cups of sugar together until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.

Beat in 1/2 cup of the bourbon.

Blend the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg together.

Add to the creamed mixture a little at a time.

Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup  bourbon and pecans.

Spoon into the prepared bundt pan.

Bake at 325F for 1 hour 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted halfway between the side and the center has just one or two crumbs attached to it.

Remove cake from oven.

While still hot pour the 3 tablespoons of bourbon over the cake along the outside edge.

Let cool in the pan.

Add the Confectioner's sugar to a bowl.

Stir in the melted butter until well blended.

Add enough bourbon to make a thick glaze.

Spoon the glaze over the cooled cake and sprinkle with more chopped pecans.
