Almost Tortuga Rum Cake

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I make this cake all the time. Everyone I know loves it. Question though......a few times when Ive been making it, the egg yolks go hard - like theyve been boiled - once I crack them into the bowl with the other ingredients. Anyone know why this might be happening?

    Almost Tortuga Rum Cake, Next best to the original! On our visit to the Caribbean, we brought home the best Rum Cake I’ve ever had in fact it’s the very best of all cakes I’ve ever had!!! I then thought I’d send for some to be shipped to us and found the price to be $35 for the med size ( I paid $18 on the Island) So my search for the recipe began! You can not purchase Tortuga Rum ANYWHERE except in the Caribbean – Whaler’s Vanille Rum should be a close match This next best copy-cat comes from Newsgroup Rec food recipes , I make this cake all the time Everyone I know loves it Question though a few times when Ive been making it, the egg yolks go hard – like theyve been boiled – once I crack them into the bowl with the other ingredients Anyone know why this might be happening?, Definitely one of my favorite cake recipes use Malibu rum and pistachio pudding The cake is so moist and delicious! I serve with some whipped cream
