Brown Butter Kentucky Butter Cake - Bake from Scratch
Photo, recipe, and styling by Britney Brown-Chamberlain ”Just when you thought Kentucky butter cake couldn’t get better, I added browned butter! It turns an already incredible cake into a cake that is out of this world! The rich, nutty aroma of the browned butter gives the cake a luxurious gourmand flavor that is unlike anything you can imagine! Each slice is a perfect blend of rich, buttery flavor and moist, melt-in-your-mouth texture that leaves you craving just one more slice.” —Britney Brown-Chamberlain Brown Butter Kentucky Butter Cake Print Recipe Pin Recipe Makes 1 (15-cup) cake Ingredients Cake:1 cup (226 grams) salted butter3 cups (375 grams) unbleached cake flour½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) kosher salt¼ teaspoon (1 gram) baking soda¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg¾ cup (180 grams) sour cream, room temperature¼ cup (60 grams) whole milk, room temperature½ cup (96 grams) butter-flavored shortening3 cups (600 grams) granulated sugar6 large eggs (300 grams), room temperature2 teaspoons (8 grams) butter-vanilla emulsion or vanilla extract (see Note)½ teaspoon (2 grams) rum emulsion or rum extract¼ teaspoon (1 grams) almond emulsion or almond extractGlaze:½ cup (113 grams) salted butter¾ cup (150 grams) granulated sugar¼ cup (60 grams) water¾ teaspoon (3 grams) butter-vanilla
