Notes
Important Note About Greasing Your Pan: For this cake, and all cakes baked in a bundt pan, it’s very important to grease and flour the pan properly to keep it from sticking and breaking. There’s not much worse in the baking realm than trying to release a cake after the work of mixing it up and baking just to find it completely stuck.
