12 tablespoons cubed

2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar

14 tablespoons milk

2 eggs, beaten

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

  • STEP 2

    Combine flour, nutmeg, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in food processor; pulse a few times. Add butter and pulse until crumbly. Add remaining cake ingredients; process until a smooth batter forms.

  • STEP 3

    Pour batter into cake molds, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake 20-22 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Let cakes cool on racks in the molds; remove to cooling rack. Make sure cakes are completely cool before glazing.
