Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.75 cups granulated sugar
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves
• 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch bundt pan or a similar-sized cake pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. This will be your spice swirl mixture.

Step 7

Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the spice swirl mixture evenly over the batter.

Step 8

Pour the remaining cake batter over the spice swirl layer, smoothing the top with a spatula. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the batter to create a marbled effect.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy your Spice Swirl Cake!
