Recipe Name: Brown Sugar Cider Pound Cake Description: Perfect when served with Fall Cider Sauce! Serving: Yield: 12 servings
Ingredients
  • 1½ cups unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 (16-ounce) package light brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 5 eggs
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ¼ cup apple cider
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Fall Cider Sauce
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a Bundt pan and set aside.
  2. Place the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat at medium speed until creamy, around 2 minutes. Gradually add the brown and granulated sugars and beat 5 minutes after both have been added to the mixture.
  3. Meanwhile, in a 2-cup glass measuring cup with a spout, combine the milk, cider and extract. Set aside. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating just until the yolks disappear. Decrease the mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk mixture to the batter. Begin and end with the flour mixture.
  5. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake 1 hour and 20 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with generous drizzles of Fall Cider Sauce.
