Ingredients

  1. Cooking spray
  2. 2 cups all-purpose flour
  3. 1 teaspoon baking powder
  4. 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  5. 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  6. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  7. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  8. 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
  9. 1 cup granulated sugar
  10. 2 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk
  11. 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  12. 1 cup sour cream
  13. 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  14. 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
  15. 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  16. 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  17. Pinch of salt
  18. 5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  19. 1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar
  20. 3 to 4 tablespoons eggnog

Instructions

  1. Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Whisk the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, egg yolk and vanilla until combined.
  2. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture in three batches,
  3. alternating with the sour cream in two batches. Increase the mixer speed to medium high and beat until well combined, about 30 seconds. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan; set aside.
  4. Make the topping: Combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a medium bowl. Work in the butter with your fingers until clumpy. Scatter the topping over the cake batter. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 20 minutes, then remove the springform ring and let cool completely.
  5. Make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners’ sugar with 3 tablespoons eggnog in a medium bowl until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, gradually whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon eggnog as needed. Drizzle the glaze over the cake before serving.

This was delicious! My oven runs a little under temp, so the time was good for me, but barely. I used a 9-inch springform pan.

Agree with gunner_doc that the cook time was a little too long. I  took mine out at 55 minutes and it should have been less. It was over baked at that time. I left off the glaze as I thought there was enough sugar already, we didn’t miss it. It was good and very sweet. I think this serves more than 8.

I think the time might be a little off. I wish I would’ve kept an eye on it. 50-60 mins I would say. I used a regular 9 inch cake pan. It has very good flavor. Just left it in too long. A little dry. I will definitely make again though.
