Ingredients

For the Cake:

• 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cups (400g) granulated sugar
• 1 cup (200g) brown sugar, packed
• 4 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
• ½ cup (120ml) sour cream

For the Caramel Glaze:

• 1 cup (200g) brown sugar, packed
• ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter
• ½ cup (120ml) heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Step 1: Preparing the Cake Batter

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt cake pan to prevent sticking.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 2: Combining Wet and Dry Ingredients

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk and sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined—do not overmix.

Step 3: Baking the Cake

6. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top.
7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 4: Making the Caramel Glaze

9. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together. Stir continuously.
10. Add the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
11. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes until it reaches a pourable consistency.

Step 5: Assembling the Cake

12. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the caramel glaze over the top, allowing it to flow down the sides.
13. Let the glaze set for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Serving Suggestions
