Ingredients

  • 1 box vanilla cake mix {15.25 ounces}
  • ½ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar {packed}
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 ¼ cups eggnog
  • ¼ cup water {or rum}
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping

  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • In a medium bowl combine cake mix, flour, brown sugar and nutmeg. Whisk until evenly incorporated. Add the sour cream, eggnog, water, eggs and vanilla extract. Mix together using a hand held mixer {or by hand} until you have a thick batter. Spray bundt pan liberally with nonstick cooking spray and pour batter into prepared pan, then spread into an even layer.
  • Bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with only a few crumbs {but not any raw batter}. Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate. Cool completely, sprinkle with powdered sugar and cinnamon then serve. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Notes

  • If you prefer to add a glaze to the top of the cake, combine 1 cup powdered sugar, 1-2 tablespoons of eggnog and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.  Whisk and pour over the top of the cooled cake.
  • Please note that if you choose to add rum in place of water for this cake that some of the alcohol will evaporate but not all of it.
