Simple Bundt Cake Ideas

Bundt cakes are impressive but so easy. It's just a nice change from the standard layer cake. You can use any cake mix or do something I just started to do. Buy two boxes of your favorite muffin mix and turn them into a bundt cake. One box just makes a small flat ring so mix them together. You can simply sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar and you are done.
You can sprinkle powdered sugar on a standard bundt cake. Depending on the flavor perhaps add chocolate that is peeled off a a bar of chocolate with a veggie peeler or you can slightly warm a can of frosting in the micro wave ( not to warm, it will be like milk and just run off the cake.) Make sure the cake if fully cooled and pour a line of frosting along the top of the cake. The frosting will drizzle down the sides for a great look. You can also top with fresh fruit or jellied fruit slices. Endless possibilities to create a great dessert.

Bundt cakes normally take a bit longer to bake. Bake at the temperature on the box and check for doneness with a toothpick. Check after 30 minutes and if not done re check every 5 to 6 minutes until toothpick comes out clean.

ENJOY!
