My friend recently gave me a new bundt pan and I'm looking for some good cakes recipes to try out Does anyone have any they can offer up? Thanks!
 
Chocolate Kahlua Cake

1 package of chocolate cake mix
1 3oz pkg instant chocolate pudding
2 cups sour cream
4 eggs
1/3 cup Kahlua
3/4 cup oil
1 12oz pkg semi sweet chocolate chips

Mix first six ingredients until well blended, stir in chocolate chips. Pour into well greased bundt pan, bake 350º for one hour.
 
lynxstch - that sounds delicious!

my "recipe" isn't so fancy.

Duncan hines Devil's food chocolate cake mix - on the side of the box is a Bundt/pound cake recipe. I've adapted this to so many different cake flavors, just match the pudding to the cake, vanilla is my "go with everything" backup. add chocolate chips or chopped nuts or fruit or whatever.

My kids like the chocolate pound cake with chocolate chips added, my favorite is lemon. DH gets cherry chip on his birthday. DD7's 2nd favorite is spice cake iwth chopped apples.

you can frost these, but I usually just sprinkle iwth powdered sugar.

if you have another brand of cake mix on hand, the recipe is

1 box devils food cake mix
1 box instant chocolate pudding (4 serving size)
4 eggs
1 1/4 cups water
1/2 cup oil

mix - pour into greased bundt pan. Pam spray is the easiest way to grease these. bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

These only take 5 minutes to throw together and are great if you need an impressive looking dessert at the last minute.
 
Another Kahula cake receipe (are we starting a theme :)

Duncan Hines Yellow Cake Mix (NO pudding in the mix)
1/2 c sugar
1/4 c Kahula
1/4 c Vodka
3/4 c water
1 c oil
4 eggs
1 small box instant chocolate pudding mix

Sift the cake mix (that way you don't get little white pieces in the cake like I did because I didn't want to be bothered sifting). Add all ingredients, mix well. Bake in a greased Bundt pan and bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes.

Once it is out of the pan. Mix 1/4 cup Kahlua and 1/2 c powdered sugar and drizzle over the cake. Do this in a pan that has sides as the liquid doesn't all absorb into the cake. I just keep spooning it back on.

Put in the microwave for a few seconds before you eat. To die for.
 

I always bake my grandma's Sour Cream Coffee Cake.

Sour Cream Coffee Cake

Mix topping and set aside I usually double this so I have more, my grandma didn't.
1/2 C Chopped nuts, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 C brown sugar, 4 TBS melted butter

Mix batter
Cream 1/2 C butter & 1 C granulated sugar
Add 2 eggs and beat well ( I don't remember if the eggs are beaten before they are added or not).
Add 1 C sour cream (it's ok to use fat free if you wish), i tsp vanilla
Add 2 C flour, 1 tsp baking powder, i tsp baking soda, 1/4 tsp salt.

One layer batter, then Topping, Then remaining batter.
 
This cake is now my "go to" dessert. Simple and delicious. It always turns out so moist.

Chocolate Chip Cake

1 (18.25 oz) package yellow cake mix
1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 cup milk
1 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
5 tbsp grated German sweet chocolate
2 tbsp confectioner's sugar

In a mixing bowl, combine cake and pudding mixes, milk, oil, and eggs. Beat on low speed until moistened. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in chocolate chips and 3 tbsp grated chocolate. Pour into a greased and floured Bundt pan.

Bake at 350° for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan and placing on a wire rack to cool completely.

Combine confectioner's sugar and 2 tbsp grated chocolate and sprinkle over cake

I second the rum cake recipe a previous poster gave the link to. I think the one I make is exactly like that one. It is very yummy and always a hit a parties.
 
I always just buy the cinnamon streusel bundt cake mix from betty crocker. It's great and my whole family loves it.

And then, because we're strange, I always put a bud vase with flowers in the hole in the middle. :lmao: (We love My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and the scene with the bundt cake is one of our favorites)
 
I was going to post the Kahlua Chocolate cake, but someone beat me to it!! I make it often. By the way...I use a traditional metal Bundt pan, but made it at my MILs this summer twice, in a silicon pan. It didn't work as well, it needed to bake WAY longer and was still kind of gooky when we finally took it out, and got gookier as time passed.

All these recipes look SO good!! I really need to get a bundt pan!! :banana:
 
I have the stoneware "fluted tube" pan from Pampered Chef. They can't use the Bundt name as it's trademarked but it's the same thing. Cakes bake in the minimum time listed on the recipe, and if you spray it well, they just fall right out.

I got the pan when it was introduced, I was a consultant at the time. I didn't think I would use it, but I love it and use it once or twice a month. besides cakes, I also make Monkey bread in it.
 
I make a 7-up cake that has been very popular within my family. This cake has a very moist lemony flavor. The cake freezes well and my family actually prefers to eat it cold.

3 cups sugar
3 sticks butter (softened)
5 eggs
3 cups flour
2 tbsp lemon extract
3/4 cup 7-up

Cream sugar and butter until mixed well. Add eggs one at a time. Add flour slowly until batter is really thick (I use a Kitchenaid mixer for this) add lemon extract and 7-up and mix well.

Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan and bake at 325 for 1 hour and 15 minutes.

I made a yummy Sour Cream Chocolate Bundt Cake a while ago. The recipe was on Williams Sonoma's site under recipes. If it's not there, I posted it on my blog several months ago, you'll be able to find the recipe and a picture of it if you search the tag "Cake."

Is it the coffee cake mix or is it actually the bundt cake mix (with a picture of the bundt cake with white drizzle frosting on the box)? That bundt cake was my favorite as a child, but I haven't seen it sold here in years.
 
This one is AMAZING and perfect for this time of year!

All-in-one Holiday Bundt Cake

Servings: 12 slices

Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsps. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsps. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 tsps. grated fresh ginger (or 1 tsp. ground ginger)
1 1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups canned unsweetened pumpkin puree
1 large apple, peeled, cored and finely chopped
1 cup cranberries, halved or coarsely chopped
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting, or maple syrup icing (see note)

1. Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9- to 10-inch (12-cup) Bundt pan. (If you have a silicone Bundt pan, there is no need to butter it.) Don't place the pan on a baking sheet -- you want the oven's heat to circulate freely through the Bundt's inner tube.

2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and ground ginger, if you're using it (not the grated ginger).

3. Working with a stand mixer, preferably fitted with a paddle attachment or with a hand mixer in a large bowl, beat together butter and sugars at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, and beat for 1 minute after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce mixer speed to low and add pumpkin, chopped apple and grated ginger, if you're using it. Do not be concerned if the mixture looks curdled. Still on low speed, add the flour mixture, stirring only until incorporated. With a rubber spatula, stir in the cranberries and pecans. Scrape batter into Bundt pan and smooth top with a rubber spatula.

4. Bake 60 to 70 minutes, or until a thin knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Transfer to a rack and cool for 10 minutes before unmolding, then cool to room temperature on the rack. Just before bringing the cake to the table, dust with confectioners' sugar. Alternatively, drizzle with maple syrup icing.

Note: For maple syrup icing: Sift 6 tablespoons confectioners' sugar into a bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons maple syrup. Add more maple syrup, little by little, until you have an icing that runs nicely off the tip of the spoon. You might need another 1/2 tablespoon syrup to get the right consistency. Put the cooled cake on a sheet of wax paper and drizzle icing from the tip of a spoon over the cake. (Sprinkle top with chopped pecans, if desired.) Let the icing set for a few minutes before serving.

It's the actual bundt one with the picture of the bundt cake on the box.

All-in-one Holiday Bundt Cake


1 cup cranberries, halved or coarsely chopped

These are fresh cranberries right? This recipe looks so good!
 
This one is more for spring...but so moist and lemony. You really should use full fat buttermilk for a very moist cake.

Glazed Lemon Blueberry Cake

Serves 10 to 12

for the cake
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for baking pan
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
2 1/2 tablespoons freshly grated lemon zest (3 large lemons)
2 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
1 cup fresh blueberries

for the glaze
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (4 lemons)
3 tablespoons freshly grated lemon zest (3 lemons)

1. Preheat the oven to 325° with the rack in the center. Butter a 10-inch tube pan; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, and scraping down the sides of the bowl.

2. Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium bowl. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in three additions, alternating with buttermilk, and beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Stir in lemon zest and juice. Gently fold in blueberries.

3. Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top with a rubber spatula. Bake until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake has begun to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth; set aside.

5. Invert the cake onto a rack. Prick the surface numerous times with a toothpick. Brush the glaze over the surface of the warm cake, and cool to room temperature. Store wrapped in plastic for up to 2 days at room temperature.
