Sour Cream Cake Recipe - With Butter Rum Glaze


	Sour Cream Cake Recipe "With Butter-Rum Glaze This sour cream cake recipe is in the top ten easy Italian dessert recipes on this site. There are very few ingredients and most are very common. This recipe came from a fundraiser cookbook that grandma helped put together 30 years ago. A majority of the recipes were submitted by Italian ladies like herself. This sour cream cake recipe called for an icing. Most Italian cakes have a liquor in their ingredients. If you don't wish to add the rum here are several substitution ideas. Although the recipe called for an icing the lady submitting the recipe didn't include it! So, *voila* I refer to my beat up red Betty Crocker cookbook with the 40 year old stove burn marks on the back cover. I prepared the butter-rum icing listed on page 254. Certainly, you have the red Betty Crocker cookbook, don't you? Ah, if not, I posted the butter rum glaze here.

Can I use oil or Crisco in place of the butter? Nope. Never! Big bad ugly things will happen. You might as well go to a supermarket bakery and buy their cakes instead of spending your time money and effort to use a non-dairy fake fat products like oil or Crisco. What about low-fat or non-fat sour cream? Gross! But every now and then I will use them. I guess that is a personal calorie decision. I'm all for watching my health, but I don't skimp on my desserts. So I don't know how this would taste with a low or non-fat sour cream. What can I use instead of rum in the glaze? Here's some options: rum flavoring almond flavoring lemon flavoring real lemon juice What if I don't have fresh lemons? And your store doesn't have any either? If you're out buying real sour cream to make a real sour cream cake recipe - buy a REAL lemon while your at it!
