I've never tasted eggnog before even though i've seen and read about it all the time. When Hanaâ mentioned how good this cake was, i just had to try it. I went to a few supermarket to find the milk carton type..not canned ones and managed to find it in town! :) I didn't have time to bake it this weekend which i had originally planned because i was out the entire day from morning till night..yup..almost 12 hours straight.
So today, after work, I baked this..finally put it in the oven at 920pm! And by 1030pm it was ready.. I didn't make the crystal rum glaze..but rum syrup glaze instead. Brushed rum syrup all over and waited patiently for it to cool so i can cut a slice and try it! So just a moment ago at 1130pm, i ate a slice and it tasted sooo good!! I love the texture and the hint of rum. It's not the usual dense pound cake but rather moist and 'fluffy' light crumbs. Definitely a keeper! So far i've baked 2 pound cakes from her book and i'm loving it! :)
So because it's running late, i took a quick photo and my camera ran out of battery..so that's the only shot i had. And I am now posting this at 11:52..pm.. LOL!
