RECIPE VARIATIONS

COOK’S TIPS
- Use your favorite cake box mix to make this dessert super easy.
- Allow to cool for 15 minutes after baking and then immediately flip the muffin tin upside down. Your cakes should slide out easily.
Do you cool a bundt cake upside down?
I let the Bundt cakes rest for about 5 minutes right side up. Then for another 5 minutes upside down on a cooling rack. Sometimes the cake will drop out without any assistance!
