Nutty Irishman Creme Cake


This is as close as i can come to the cake i made for my dad's 50 birthday over 20 years ago. This recipe is a lot smaller. Then i did make it in a sheet cake and it had a frosting at the time not a glaze like here. If you want a really good frosting give this creamy chocolate frosting recipe #51345 a try, but use frangelica liqueur instead of the rum.

Steps


Preheat oven to 350 degrees f.
Combine the first 7 ingredients in a mixing bowl and beat for 3 minutes.
Pour into a greased and floured 10 inch bundt pan.
Bake at 350 degrees 40 to 50 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove from bundt pan.
With a pastry brush brush frangelico on cooked cake and let it cool completely.
Mix baileys and 1 cup sugar until a thick glaze is formed adding more sugar if necessary.
When ready , pour over the cooled cake.
Or use the frosting recipe above.
Sprinkle toasted almonds into glaze while still soft pressing gentle so to stay on cake.
