Today, we're excited to share a recipe that brings together those two beloved flavors in the form of a moist and decadent Caramel Latte Bundt Cake.
It's a perfect dessert for any occasion – whether you're hosting a brunch, a cozy gathering, or simply indulging in a sweet snack with your afternoon coffee.
<h3>Why Caramel Latte Bundt Cake?</h3>
We all know that caramel and coffee are a match made in heaven. The sweet richness of caramel perfectly complements the deep, bold flavors of coffee, creating a harmonious balance that's hard to resist. The Caramel Latte Bundt Cake is designed to bring these flavors together in the most delicious way. It's a cake that combines the best of both worlds – the warmth and complexity of coffee, alongside the sweet indulgence of caramel.
What makes this cake special is not only the flavor but also the texture. Bundt cakes are known for their dense, moist crumb, and this one is no exception. The combination of sour cream and butter gives the cake a soft, tender texture, while the addition of coffee ensures a rich, complex flavor that coffee lovers will appreciate. The caramel glaze on top adds an extra layer of sweetness, taking the cake to the next level.

<h3>How to Make It: Step-by-Step</h3>
Making this Caramel Latte Bundt Cake is a delightful process, and we promise, it's totally worth it!
<b>1. Prepare the Cake Batter:</b>
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and preparing a Bundt pan by greasing and flouring it. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, which should take around 3-5 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Then, mix in the vanilla extract and espresso powder, if you're using it.
<b>2. Add the Dry Ingredients:</b>
In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with sour cream and brewed coffee, starting and finishing with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
<b>3. Bake the Cake:</b>
Transfer the batter to the prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the surface. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then carefully move it to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely.
<b>4. Make the Caramel Glaze:</b>
As the cake cools, begin making the glaze. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, then stir in the brown sugar and bring the mixture to a boil. Allow it to simmer for about 3 minutes, then slowly add the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Let the mixture simmer for an additional 2 minutes, or until it thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before pouring over the cooled cake.
