It gets its subtle maple taste from the addition of Maple Crown Royal whiskey. (No, I&#8217;m not getting a kickback from them, and yes, I&#8217;ll give you non-alcohol alternatives.) It has a delicate crispy crust from coating the pan with sugar before adding the batter, and I kicked the sweet maple flavor up a notch by using maple sugar\u2014 but that&#8217;s just me; I can never get enough maple!<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7018\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Maple-Crown-Cake-The-Rowdy-Baker.jpg?resize=584%2C834\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"834\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Maple-Crown-Cake-The-Rowdy-Baker.jpg?resize=717%2C1024 717w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Maple-Crown-Cake-The-Rowdy-Baker.jpg?resize=210%2C300 210w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Maple-Crown-Cake-The-Rowdy-Baker.jpg?resize=768%2C1097 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Maple-Crown-Cake-The-Rowdy-Baker.jpg?w=1798 1798w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Maple-Crown-Cake-The-Rowdy-Baker.jpg?w=1168 1168w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I played with the icing on this cake. On my first attempt, I made a ganache from maple morsels (something new on the market) and was less than impressed. So I went back to my trusty brown sugar icing and spiked it with maple whiskey. Much better!<\/p>\n<p>If you have a little of this icing left, and you haven&#8217;t just eaten it with a spoon, try adding a spoonful to a cup of hot coffee. I like my coffee strong and black, but I&#8217;ve got to say, this was delightful. Go ahead and refrigerate it if you want; it&#8217;ll cool the coffee down a bit when you add it.

The mixture should lighten in color.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly and scraping the sides of the bowl with each addition. Take your time! It should take you several minutes to add 6 eggs.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add the liquid and dry ingredients alternately in three additions, beginning with the dry ingredients and ending with the liquids. Beat just enough to combine each time, taking care to scrape the bowl down often.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Spoon into prepared bundt pan carefully so you don&#8217;t disturb the sugar on the sides. Smooth the top and bake for approximately 1 hour 20 minutes. The top should be rich brown and a long toothpick inserted in the cake should come out clean.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Allow cake to rest on cooling rack for 10 minutes, then flip it over. Wait a few more minutes before lifting off the pan. Let cake cool before making icing.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">ICING: Put brown sugar, milk, and butter in a medium saucepan. Turn heat to medium and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Once it boils, let it cook for 2 minutes without stirring.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Remove from heat and add powdered sugar and maple whiskey. Whisk vigorously until the icing is smooth. Pour over cooled cake. If you have a little extra, it can be gently reheated and drizzled over ice cream. (if it&#8217;s too thick, feel free to add a bit more whiskey!)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERNutrition\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"endeasyrecipe\" style=\"display: none;\">3.5.3251<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_7004\" style=\"width: 594px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7004\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7004\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-let-butter-and-eggs-come-to-room-temperature.jpg?resize=584%2C390\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-let-butter-and-eggs-come-to-room-temperature.jpg?resize=1024%2C683 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-let-butter-and-eggs-come-to-room-temperature.jpg?resize=300%2C200 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-let-butter-and-eggs-come-to-room-temperature.jpg?resize=768%2C512 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-let-butter-and-eggs-come-to-room-temperature.jpg?resize=450%2C300 450w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-let-butter-and-eggs-come-to-room-temperature.jpg?w=1168 1168w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-let-butter-and-eggs-come-to-room-temperature.jpg?w=1752 1752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7004\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">It&#8217;s important to let the butter and eggs come to room temperature.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_7005\" style=\"width: 594px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7005\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7005\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/B-brush-bundt-pan-with-vegetable-oil-or-coconut-oil-and-sprinkle-with-sugar.jpg?resize=584%2C390\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/B-brush-bundt-pan-with-vegetable-oil-or-coconut-oil-and-sprinkle-with-sugar.jpg?resize=1024%2C683 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/B-brush-bundt-pan-with-vegetable-oil-or-coconut-oil-and-sprinkle-with-sugar.jpg?resize=300%2C200 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/B-brush-bundt-pan-with-vegetable-oil-or-coconut-oil-and-sprinkle-with-sugar.jpg?resize=768%2C512 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/B-brush-bundt-pan-with-vegetable-oil-or-coconut-oil-and-sprinkle-with-sugar.jpg?resize=450%2C300 450w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/B-brush-bundt-pan-with-vegetable-oil-or-coconut-oil-and-sprinkle-with-sugar.jpg?w=1168 1168w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.therowdybaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/B-brush-bundt-pan-with-vegetable-oil-or-coconut-oil-and-sprinkle-with-sugar.jpg?w=1752 1752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7005\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Coat a bundt pan with vegetable oil or coconut oil and sprinkle liberally with sugar.
