Bundt cakes - a little trick I learned yesterday.

I made a new Bundt cake recipe yesterday. One of the women who posted a comment said that her grandmother always buttered the pan and "floured" it with powdered sugar instead of flour.  I tried it and it's amazing.  The cake came out of the pan very easily and the outside crust is delicously crispy.  

 

I know you can't taste the crust by looking at a photo, but I'll post it anyway.

I beg to differ, I CAN definitely taste this cake, just by looking at the photo!

 

YUMMMM!!

They say when you bake something like a chocolate souffle you use white sugar on the inside and around the rim. I bought some the other day and they had sugar around the rim. I think the bluejean chef uses sugar too.

Well, you need to hurry up... my son was home yesterday and DH's friend stopped by, so there's only half left!

For a dark cake, you can use cocoa powder.

Baking bundt cakes was my jam years ago--had  many Nordic ware pans that I used and that tip about using sugar or coca powder instead of flour was something I did way back when---was delighted at how much nicer and tastier the cakes were, not to mention much better they looked---good tip!!!
