  6. Bake at 325°F (165ºC) for 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours or until cake tests done.
  7. Cool in a pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
  8. Turn cake out of pan onto wire rack and invert again.
  9. Place waxed paper under rack to catch glaze drippings.
  10. Slowly spoon the glaze onto top of hot cake and let glaze drizzle down sides of cake.

Six-Flavor Glaze

  1. Combine all the glaze ingredients in a heavy saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, while constantly stirring until the sugar dissolves.

Makes 12 Servings.

Note: If you know you’re not going to be able to eat all of the cake soon, cut the cake in 4 pieces and put 3 pieces in separate ziplock bags.  You’ll be surprised how fresh the cake will taste, even a month or two later.  Watkins extracts hold up really well when food they’re in is placed in the freezer.  Simply remove from freezer and thaw completely before eating if you opt to store some in the freezer.

This outstanding baked onions dish can be cooked quickly for any size group. 

Ingredients:

Cooking Instructions:

Take the number of onions you think it will take to feed your group, likely one per person.  Skin each Spanish onion and cut crosswise into 3 slices.   Spray Watkins cooking spray on a baking dish and lay each onion slice side by side.  Season accordingly with Watkins sea salt, black pepper and paprika.  Then dot each onion with butter.

On your stovetop make enough Watkins Onion Soup & Gravy Base to pour to a depth of 1/4 inch in the baking pan and have some left over for basting during the baking process.   Bring the onion soup base to a boil and then pour slowly into the pan to the 1/4-inch depth.

Bake at 325 degree F while basting with more onion soup base for at least an hour until the soup stock is absorbed and the onions are tender and a nice brown color.
