Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Make sure it's at room temperature.
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs Use large eggs for best results.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup sour cream This adds moisture and richness.
  • 1 cup salted caramel sauce Store-bought or homemade.

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan to ensure your cake comes out easily when baked.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then set it aside for later.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until it’s light and fluffy, which should take about 3-5 minutes.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully integrated before adding the next. Add in the vanilla extract, too.
  • Gradually mix in the dry ingredient mixture, alternating with the sour cream until everything is combined. Don’t overmix!
  • Fold in 0.5 cups of the salted caramel sauce into the batter, creating beautiful swirls. Pour the batter into your prepared bundt pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Let it cool for about 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Once cooled, drizzle the remaining salted caramel sauce over the top of the cake and enjoy a slice of your delicious creation!

Notes

This cake is perfect for celebrations, and can even be served with whipped cream on the side for an extra indulgence!
