Notes
It is best to use a Pound Cake Mix in this recipe. It holds up much stronger and comes out of the pan nicer. Make sure you use plenty of cooking spray on pan or crisco and flour. You want it to come out beautiful.
This recipe is very large and fills a 12-cup bundt pan just right about 2/3rds of the pan.
If you are using a smaller bundt pan adjust the recipe or make a full recipe but fill only 2/3rds of the pan. Adjust the time by 5-10 minutes shorter by testing.
Add some lemon zest or shavings to the top of the cake to make it a show stopper.
Make sure you grease your pan thoroughly with cooking spray or Crisco and flour
Choose a size pan based on the fluid amount of your batter
Leave 1/3 of the pan empty for rising
Lightly tap the pan on the counter full of batter to remove any air bubbles
Smooth the top with a spatula
Place on a Baking tray for baking in case of spillover
After Baking remove from the oven and loosen the edges immediately with a small metal cake spatula
Turn the pan upside down on a wire rack and after 15 minutes remove the pan.
