Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 Yellow Cake Mix, reserve 2 tbsp for streusel
1 8 oz sour cream
1/3 cup canola oil (or 5 1/3 tbsp butter, melted and cooled)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp dry cake mix
1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 1/2-4 tbsp milk (for thicker glaze, start with 1 1/2 tbsp and add more as needed)
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp nuts, roughly chopped (walnuts or pecans)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and liberally spray your Bundt cake pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine cake mix (minus 2 tbsp reserved for streusel), sour cream, oil (or melted butter), sugar, eggs, vanilla, and water and mix together with an electric hand mixer for 2 minutes until smooth.
  • Pour 2/3 of the cake batter into the prepared Bundt cake pan.
  • In a small mixing bowl prepare your streusel by combining 2 tbsp dry cake mix, chopped nuts, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until fully combined. Sprinkle evenly on top of the cake batter, and then top with the remaining cake batter until covered.
  • Bake in the oven for 35-45 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan on a wire cooling rack, then flip/transfer to the cake plate you will serve it on.
  • Let the cake cool for an additional 20 minutes (30 minutes total) before glazing.
  • To make the glaze, combine 1 cup of powdered sugar with 1.5 - 4 tablespoons of milk in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Start by adding 1 1/2 tablespoon of milk and add additional tablespoons to reach desired glaze consistency. For a thicker, white glaze, use 1 1/2- 2 tablespoons of milk. For a thinner drizzle-like glaze that soaks into the cake, use 3-4 tablespoons of milk.
  • Spoon glaze on top of the cake and top with chopped nuts, if desired. Slice and enjoy!

KINDNESS CAKE



Kindness Cake image

From the November 2002 issue of Canadian Living Magazine: In January 2001, in honour of the United Nations International Decade for the Culture of Peace, Monica Mueller of Burnaby BC started a progam that provides cakes for conferences and cultural events that focus on developing kindness. The cakes hark back to many cultures with their traditional ingredients (almonds, from the Jewish mandelbrot; dates, eaten to break the fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan; cranberries, from the cuisine of Canada's native peoples). She hopes that on World Kindness Day (Nov. 13) people will make these cakes and--in the spirit of kindness--give one away. Well, Recipezaar members -- are we up for that?! :-)

Yield 24 slices

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange rind
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 1/4 cups chopped pitted dates
1 cup cranberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup chopped almonds
2 tablespoons butter, softened
2 cups icing sugar (sift through a sieve after measuring to remove lumps)
2 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F; line 2 8x4 loaf pans with parchment paper and set aside.

  • Next, beat in eggs, 1 at a time, then stir in orange rind.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda and powder, and salt.
  • Stir dry mixture into butter mixture alternately with buttermilk (dry, buttermilk, dry, buttermilk, finally dry).

  • Scrape batter into the two prepared loaf pans and bake in the centre of preheated oven until a tester comes out clean, about 75 minutes.
  • Turn out onto cooling racks and cool completely.
  • You could now wrap cakes in heavyduty foil and freeze for up to one month, if you wish.

  • Spread icing over tops of both cakes.

KINDNESS RECIPE

The following is something the majority of us must learn and adapt to. I, like many, am not "perfect." As we grow older, we realize that there are many flaws within this world of ours and it is sometimes difficult dealing and accepting those flaws. The words in this verse certainly give us food for thought!... I found this on grouprecipes.This would make a great gift.
