Equipment

  • oven

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of granulated sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup of unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 cup of dark rum
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 cup of brewed coffee optional

Instructions
 

  • Before you start making the cake, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). This will ensure that your cake is baked evenly and comes out perfectly.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Whisk these ingredients together until they are well combined.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, beat 4 eggs and 1 cup of granulated sugar together until they are light and fluffy. Add the melted unsalted butter, 1/2 cup of dark rum, and 1 cup of brewed coffee (if using) to the egg and sugar mixture. Beat these ingredients together until they are well combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing continuously until the batter is smooth. Do not overmix the batter, as this can cause the cake to become tough.
  • Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch (23cm) round cake pan. Tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any air bubbles.
  • Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan. After that, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
