Canada Dry® Ginger Ale Bundt Cake
1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and flour a Bundt pan.
2. Whisk together flour, cornstarch, salt and baking powder. Set aside. In a large bowl of an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Mix in eggs, one at a time, until incorporated. Beat in sour cream.
3. Alternating, add in flour mixture and 3/4 cup of Ginger Ale, starting and ending with flour. Add flour in three additions. Mix just until combined. Fold in crystallized ginger.
4. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean, or with a few crumbs.
5. Meanwhile, make glaze. Whisk confectioner’s sugar, 5 tbs of Ginger Ale and vanilla together until smooth. (You’ll still have some Ginger Ale left over.) Cover with plastic wrap and set aside until needed.
6. Remove cake from oven and place on a wire cooling rack for 5 minutes. Prick all along bottom of cake (the part showing) with a long skewer or toothpick. Brush with remaining ginger ale. After 5 minutes, place wire rack face down on top of exposed part of the Bundt cake. Flip over and let it rest for a minute. Gently remove pan. Let cool completely.
7. Place cake and wire rack on a rimmed cookie sheet to catch drips. Spoon glaze over cake. Let glaze set for at least 15 minutes before serving.
