The recipe for a juicy eggnog cake
(for 16 cm diameter Guglhupf tin):
- 2 eggs
- 100g powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla sugar, homemade
- 90 ml sunflower oil
- 100 ml eggnog
- 100g flour
- ½ packet of baking powder
- A little butter to grease the mold
- A little flour to sprinkle the mold
- Some powdered sugar for sprinkling
Tip : If you use a Bundt cake tin with a diameter of 22-24 cm, simply multiply the amount of ingredients by a factor of 1.9! This increases the baking time by 10 minutes.
Five easy steps to make your eggnog cake

- Place eggs, powdered sugar and vanilla sugar in mixing bowl and mix 30 seconds/speed 5 until frothy.
- Add oil, eggnog, flour and baking powder, mix 20 seconds/speed 5
- Pour the dough into the prepared Bundt cake tin and bake in the lower third for 50 minutes.

Tips and tricks for the perfect eggnog cake
There are a few tips and tricks that make the difference for the perfect eggnog cake. Make sure to bring all ingredients to room temperature before you begin. This ensures more even mixing and better rising of the cake. A pinch of salt in the dough can enhance the flavors and provide a more balanced taste. When pouring the batter into the loaf pan, tap the pan lightly on the work surface to remove any air bubbles and ensure an even batter. Bake the cake in the preheated oven and avoid opening the oven door during the first baking time to prevent the cake from sinking. Finally, let the cake with the eggnog cool down a bit in the tin after baking before turning it out. This prevents it from breaking or crumbling. With these tips, your eggnog cake will not only be a success, but also the highlight of your Easter holidays.
