Eggnog Cake – a browned butter spice cake with eggnog buttercream, perfect for holiday entertaining and Christmas dessert. A new layer cake recipe by our contributor,\u00a0Tessa Huff<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Eggnog<\/p>\n

With the holidays creeping up on us sooner and sooner each year, it can be difficult to know just when to start making and snacking on our favorite treats.\u00a0 Sometimes I feel like I wait all year just to indulge in daily sugar cookies a little more guilt free. \u00a0But when the weather gets chilly and the days are shorter, it definitely calls for a hot mug of something creamy and a treat to warm the soul. \u00a0It is just about that time, at least in my neck of the woods.\u00a0 So grab a snuggle buddy, your coziest sweater, and meet up by the fire for some sips and sweet eats.<\/p>\n

\"Eggnog<\/p>\n

The holidays bring out some of the best flavors and most festive foods, it\u2019s hard to choose which ones to treat yourself to. \u00a0I love to make holiday cookies and candies to gift to friends, but one of my favorite things to spoil myself with is eggnog. \u00a0It can be so incredibly rich and creamy that indulging in a cup or two only once a year definitely gets me in the holiday spirit.\u00a0 For this recipe, I\u2019ve taken the flavors and characteristics of eggnog and turned them into a luscious cake.<\/p>\n

In this cake, layers of spice cake have been smothered in creamy eggnog filling and enrobed in silky buttercream. \u00a0The browned butter adds a nutty, warm element to the classic cake and the slight tang of the cream cheese in the filling balances everything out. \u00a0Since fillings and frostings can become super-sugary very quickly, this Swiss meringue buttercream is the perfect way to add rich creaminess without being too sweet. \u00a0Garnish with bits of toffee candy<\/a> and serve with a warm mug of eggnog.<\/p>\n
