Tips:
- Use a light-colored baking pan to prevent the cakes from browning too much.
- Do not overmix the batter to prevent the cakes from becoming tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to help prevent the cakes from spreading too much.
- Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool completely before frosting them.
- If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
- For a fun twist, try adding different flavors to the batter, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit.
- Get creative with your frosting! You can use a simple glaze, a whipped cream frosting, or a more elaborate buttercream frosting.
- Serve the cakes with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream.
