ISO: ISO glazeable cake! >>

[whipappeal]

I have about two cups of citrus glaze--a dozen lemons, six mandarin oranges, and two limes--boiled until clear with a bunch of sugar. (All that juice is left over from limoncello/mandarincello-making.)

So I envisoned poking a light Bundt cake full of holes and pouring the glaze over it...

Any suggestions for a recipe? smileys/smile.gif

Thanks!

Hey Erin, try the Orange Butter Cake in T&T. It's great!

I would just spoon the glaze over this one, as opposed to poking holes, etc.

Thanks, Meryl; this looks great. (I have so much glaze, I might make 2 and freeze 1.) smileys/wink.gif

How about marinating chicken breasts in it then grilling? Or ...

skewer the chicken with pineapple chunks, tomatoes, pepper, etc., and use the glaze as a basting sauce.

Or... throw some in a blender with ice cream or yogurt, and fresh strawberries to make a smoothie.

Or pour over lots of ice and drink.

wonder if you could freeze some in icecube trays to use in drinks?

Exactly! I had some left over recently...and stirred it into a cocktail...yum.

Good idea; I just mixed it, half-and-half, with fizzy mineral water. smileys/smile.gif Refreshing!

 

[whipappeal]

Dunno; for example, a little fried-chicken thing in a Bloody Mary could be quite tasty smileys/wink.gif

(I mean, skewered above the drink, not actually in it...)

It would make a quick sangria too. Just add some syrup to a red table wine and enjoy.
