Ingredients
For the Pound Cake
- 1¼ cups unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2½ cups granulated sugar
- 5 large eggs room temperature
- ¼ tsp salt
- 3¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup RC Cola
For the Glaze
- 2 cups confectioners sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3-4 Tbsp milk
- ½ cup chopped peanuts I used roasted, salted peanuts
Instructions
For the Pound Cake
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Lightly grease a standard 12-14 cup Bundt pan; set pan aside.
- Using an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy (~3-4 minutes).
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low after each addition.
- Add salt and flour 1 cup at a time, mixing on low after each addition.
- Add RC Cola and mix on low speed until a smooth batter forms (~1-2 minutes).
- Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan. Bake at 325°F for 80-90 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Allow cake cool in pan for 15 minutes and then invert onto a wire rack until completely cool.
For the Glaze
- Using a small mixing bowl, whisk together all glaze ingredients. (Tip: Start with 3 Tbsp of milk. If the glaze is too thick to pour, add 1 more Tbsp of milk.)
- Spoon glaze on top of the pound cake and then sprinkle chopped peanuts on top before the glaze sets.
