SPICE BUNDT CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Butter and flour a 10 to 12 cup bundt pan (or spray with a baking spray that includes flour), and refrigerate while preparing the cake.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, & nutmeg together in a bowl and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, sugar, & brown sugar together on high speed until light and fluffy, about three minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the eggs, one at a time, scraping between additions. In a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together oil, vanilla, & buttermilk (or substitution). In the bowl with the butter and sugars, alternate additions of the flour and buttermilk mixtures at low speed, beginning and ending with flour. Mix just until combined and do not overwork the batter. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to make sure all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smooth out the top, and firmly pound the pan against the countertop several times to tap out any air bubbles. Bake in the center of the oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean from the center of the cake.
- Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for about 20 to 30 minutes before turning the cake out onto the rack to cool completely. Once cool, drizzle with cream cheese glaze (recipe below) if desired. Cake should keep, in an air tight container at room temperature, for about 3 or 4 days.

These mini wreaths taste just like the holiday season and are simple to make, thanks to an adorable mini bundt pan. Each cake is dipped in boozy bourbon-spiked glaze and decorated with candy and sprinkles for a festive treat.

Steps:
- For the mini bundt cakes: preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the cups of two 6-cavity mini bundt cake pans, making sure to get in all the crevices; set aside. Whisk the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
- Beat the 2 sticks butter and the granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the sour cream and vanilla. (The batter may look curdled.) Reduce the mixer speed to medium low and add the flour mixture in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk; beat until just combined.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pans, filling each cavity about 3/4 full and smoothing the top if necessary. Bake until the cakes are golden, starting to pull away from the edges of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool 15 minutes in the pans; loosen the edges of the cakes with a toothpick or wooden skewer and invert onto the rack to cool completely.
- For the glaze and decorating: Once the cakes are completely cool, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, bourbon, milk and green food coloring in a small bowl until smooth and thick. Add up to 1 more tablespoon bourbon or milk if the mixture is too thick for dipping (it should be the consistency of honey).
- Working one at a time, dip each cake in the green-tinted glaze, letting excess drip back into the bowl, then return to the rack and sprinkle generously with red, green and white sprinkles. Tie a piece of sour candy straw into a knot, then press into top of each bundt cake for the "bow." Let the glaze set completely, about 30 minutes.
PUMPKIN SPICE BUNDT CAKE WITH BUTTERMILK ICING
When the pumpkin pie is gone, but you've only just begun to get your fill of pumpkin desserts, this bundt will fill the void quite nicely (and the somewhat more assertive spices will welcome the season ahead). Best of all, the flavors continue to develop and the cake tastes even better a few days after it's baked, so it's perfect to have on hand at this time of year, when guests tend to drop in unexpectedly.

Steps:
- Make cake:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter bundt pan generously, then dust with flour, knocking out excess.
- Whisk together flour (2 1/4 cups), baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together pumpkin, 3/4 cup buttermilk, and vanilla in another bowl.
- Beat butter (1 1/2 sticks) and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes, then add eggs and beat 1 minute. Reduce speed to low and add flour and pumpkin mixtures alternately in batches, beginning and ending with flour mixture and mixing until batter is just smooth.
- Spoon batter into pan, smoothing top, then bake until a wooden pick or skewer inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool cake in pan on a rack 15 minutes, then invert rack over cake and reinvert cake onto rack. Cool 10 minutes more.
- Make icing:
- While cake is cooling, whisk together buttermilk and confectioners sugar until smooth. Drizzle icing over warm cake, then cool cake completely. Icing will harden slightly.
BUTTERNUT SQUASH BUNDT CAKE
A very good year in my garden for butternut squash. I've been looking for ways to use them up. I altered a sweet potato recipe and this came out delicious.
