I’ll be honest, I had a hard time naming this cake. It’s an ode to honey cake, thanks to the honey glaze and a bit of honey in the cake, but what’s really amazing and so seasonal about the cake is the glaze. (In my mind, the glaze is not optional on a cake, but actually integral.) The great texture of the cake with the sweetness of the cinnamon swirl makes a great stage for that glaze. Yields 1 bundt pan

Directions

Prepare the Cinnamon Swirl Honey Cake with Bourbon Honey Glaze

1. Preheat oven to 350 degres Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Grease a bundt pan very well with a flour and oil baking spray.

2. Using an electric mixer, combine oil and sugar.

3. Add eggs and mix very well until creamy. Add vanilla, honey, dissolved coffee, and bourbon.

4. Add dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

5. Pour one-third of the batter into the prepared bundt pan, Sprinkle on the cinnamon swirl over the batter in the pan and then top with the remaining two-thirds of the batter.

6. Bake for 50 minutes to one hour.

I think the powdered sugar measurement in the glaze may be an error… It needs more to get to the thickness in the pic. Otherwise delicious!

If the glaze is not thick enough you can definitely add more powdered sugar until it’s the right consistency,

For the glaze: just combine ingredients? What do you do with the ingredients for the glaze? Do they need to be heated? Will it dissolve into a smooth glaze without any other steps? How do you suggest dripping the glaze on the cake so it looks like the picture? Around the top so it drips down? Advise welcomed.
