Delicious Cinnamon Bundt Cake Recipe

Start by making the filling. In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter. Mix until fully incorporated and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and vanilla sugar. This step is essential to ensure even distribution of the leavening agents in your cake.

Now, for the wet ingredients: Melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly. In a separate bowl, mix the buttermilk, melted butter, and eggs until fully combined. It’s important to use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing, as this can lead to a dense cake. The batter should be somewhat thick and creamy.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease your Bundt pan generously with butter and dust with flour to prevent sticking. This is a crucial step for the perfect release of your cake.

Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan. Next, add the cinnamon filling in the center. Do not spread it too close to the edges to prevent it from leaking. Then, pour in the remaining batter to cover the filling.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking times may vary, so keep an eye on it!

Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a wire rack. It is important to let the cake cool completely before frosting.

To prepare the glaze, beat the softened butter and cream cheese together in a mixing bowl. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla sugar, continuing to mix until you achieve a smooth consistency.

Using a piping bag, drizzle the glaze over the cooled Bundt cake, allowing it to drip down the sides. This not only enhances the flavor but also adds a beautiful finish to your dessert.
