Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 0.5 cup Peach schnapps
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Peach preserves
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Peach schnapps (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoon Milk (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and generously grease and flour a bundt pan.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk and peach schnapps. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Stir in the vanilla extract and peach preserves, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, peach schnapps, and milk until smooth and pourable.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides.
Let the glaze set for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
