Zubereitung von Absolutely Heavenly Amaretto Cake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar for 2 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined.
- Stir in 1/2 cup amaretto and 1 teaspoon almond extract.
- Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake cools, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup amaretto, 1/2 cup marmalade, and 1/2 cup apricot preserves (or your favorite preserves).
- Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the marmalade and preserves are melted and smooth.
- Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top.
- Sprinkle with 1/4 cup slivered almonds.
