Kentucky Butter Cake with Bourbon Glaze
I have lived in Kentucky my entire life and had never heard of "Kentucky Butter Cake." When I came across the recipe, I knew I had to try it. Kentucky AND butter? It just doesn't get much better than that! Thankfully it tastes just as good as it sounds. Think of a super moist pound cake with a rich, buttery taste. The sugary, bourbon glaze adds just the right amount of sweetness and creates a slightly crisp layer around the edges of the cake. As I've said in the past, I don't have much patience when it come to baking, but this recipe is super quick and easy. I was even able to use my new Nordicware Bundt Pan to make the cake look so pretty without any extra work!
