- 1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 6 large eggs

- 3 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup (2 oz.) bourbon
Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoons milk

Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

- In a small sauce pan, melt ¼ cup butter, ½ cup of brown sugar, and cinnamon until butter is melted and simmer for 1 minute.

- Pour granulated sugar into the mixing bowl along with the remaining brown sugar.
- Mix on medium high for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture is light and creamy.
- While the mixer is on slowly beat in the eggs one at a time just until the yolks are incorporated. Stir in vanilla.
- Add sifted dry ingredients one cup at a time and then pour in a 1/3 of the bourbon. Continue until all the flour is mixed in and finish with the last of the bourbon.
- Pour the cake mix into the Bundt pan. Tap on the counter to release air bubbles.
- Smooth the top evenly and bake for 1 hour and 25 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes.
