HERE ARE A FEW IDEAS TO "DRESS-UP" THIS GREAT CAKE.
This is one cake where your imagination can run wild with serving and decorating variations! And, it's a perfect "take-along" dessert for any party, club meeting, church super or family get together!

1.)Add a little "snow" to the top of your cake. Dust 2 tablespoons of confectioner's sugar over the top of the cooled cake. A flour sifter works well for this.

2.)Fill the center of the bundt cake with your favorite ice cream. Drizzle Hershey's Syrup over the cake and the ice cream. Top the ice cream with a large amount of whipped topping. Sprinkle with finely chopped nuts and top with a cherry. Use sprinkles for an even more festive touch!

3.)For a slighter lighter touch, fill the bundt center with a mixture of raspberries or sliced strawberries and blueberries. Top with whipped cream. Surround the base of the bundt cake with more berries. A great Fourth of July picnic cake!

4.)This chocolate cake really does not need frosting, but if you would like to top it, melt a little prepared, canned frosting and gently pour over the cake. Allow the frosting to run down the side. Top it off with some cherries for a little extra color.

Tip: Cut the cake in quarters or large chunks and freeze for a day when you need a quick dessert or just want a little chocolate! It freezes extremely well.

ENJOY!
