Don't skimp on the soaking syrup or strawberry salad here. They're both keys to this indulgent rum cake.
Ingredients
- Baking spray
- 4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 2/3 cup sugar, divided
- 1/2 cup dark rum
- 2 large egg yolks
- 2 vanilla beans, split
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons custard powder (such as Bird's brand)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
- 6 large egg whites
- Soaking Syrup
- 1 cup crème fraîche
- 8 teaspoons turbinado sugar
- Strawberry Salad
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 °. Spray 8 (2-ounce) ramekins with baking spray. Arrange ramekins on a jelly-roll pan.
- Combine butter, 1/3 cup sugar, rum, and egg yolks in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment; beat at medium speed 3 minutes. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean into butter mixture; discard bean. Whisk together flour, custard powder, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Reduce mixer speed to low. Add flour mixture to butter mixture in 2 additions; beat at low speed 2 minutes or until thoroughly combined. Transfer mixture to a large bowl, scraping mixing bowl clean with a rubber spatula. Clean and dry mixing bowl.
- Add egg whites to bowl of stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat egg whites at medium-high speed 2 minutes or until soft peaks form. With mixer running, slowly add remaining 1/3 cup sugar to mixing bowl. Beat 1 minute or until stiff peaks form. Fold egg whites into cake batter using a rubber spatula.
- Divide batter among prepared ramekins. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted in center comes out with dry crumbs. Cool cakes completely in ramekins.
- Pierce cakes 4 to 5 times with a skewer. Drizzle 1 tablespoon Soaking Syrup evenly over each cake. Let stand 10 minutes.
- Whip crème fraîche with a hand mixer 1 minute or until soft peaks form.
- Carefully loosen edges of cakes with a knife. Invert each ramekin onto a serving plate; gently lift ramekin from cake. Sprinkle surface of each cake evenly with 1 teaspoon turbinado sugar. Holding a kitchen blowtorch about 2 inches from the top of each cake, evenly heat the sugar, moving torch back and forth, 1 minute or until sugar is completely melted and caramelized. Serve cakes immediately with whipped crème fraîche and Strawberry Salad.
