Method

  • STEP 1

    Grease and lightly flour a 1.4 litre (6 cup) fluted bundt tin. Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.

  • STEP 2

    Put the butter and sugar into a bowl and beat well using an electric mixer until the mixture is very light and fluffy. Add the eggs a little at a time, beating well between each addition. Add a little flour if the mixture starts to separate. Add the vanilla extract.

  • STEP 3

    Mix together the flour, baking powder and salt and stir half into the butter mixture together with half the soured cream. Beat well together.

  • STEP 4

    Add the remaining flour and soured cream and mix well. Spoon into the prepared tin and spread level.

  • STEP 5

    Bake in the oven for 35–40 mins. When cooked remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 5 mins.

  • STEP 6

    To make the glaze put all the ingredients into a small pan and heat until the butter has melted. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat a little and simmer for 3 mins. Remove from the heat and allow to cool and thicken.

  • STEP 7

    Turn the cake out onto a wire rack over a tray. Pour or brush half of the glaze over the cake. Leave to soak in. Then pour the remaining glaze over the cake. Leave until completely cold before serving.
