What is better than a beautiful bundt cake to greet relatives and company? Now you might think, “that is so typical”…but just wait until you see this cake. The cake pan was originally bought at William Sonoma and is VERY easy to use! The instructions on the cake pan say to butter and flour the pan to prevent sticking, however I have found that non-stick cooking spray works just as well (and without as much effort!). In addition, when I have used flour in the past, it turns the outside of the cake splotchy with flour, and when presentation is everything, splotchy white patches just will NOT do! 
The box I had for the vanilla bundt cake was also a William Sonoma product. Now I’m a firm believer that even if it “comes from a box”…it can still be considered homemade! This particular “boxed cake” had the sugars and flour mixed together in packets and then all I had to do was mix in 2 sticks of butter, 4 eggs and a cup of milk! The box said it should cook between 50-60 minutes…Though it ended up being more like 70 minutes. While that was baking I mixed together a glaze (1/2 cup water, ½ cup sugar, 1 tbsp vanilla) and then covered the cake with it when it came out of the oven! (Put the glaze on while the cake is still warm, so that it absorbs more of it!) and for a final touch, sprinkle the cake with confectioners’ sugar (powered sugar)!
It turned out to be a very pretty, and yummy dessert!!! I would definitely make this again!! The cake itself was very sweet, best served with a black coffee!!
Millions of chocolate kisses,
