CHRISTMAS BUNDT CAKE ๐๐๐
Hello my Dearest Foodies,
Yes, I am finally back in the kitchen and this is my first CHRISTMAS recipe. My hand is healing well, there for I should be able make even more challenging stuff soon.
This budt cake was very easy, that's why I decided to make it first, although it may look challenging. However, after you read the recipe, you will see how simple it is, but also delicious and guilt free. For those of you who prefer to using gluten free flour you may try that, although I cannot guarantee the outcome.

Oh! Your bundt cake looks amazing! The pattern makes it something special and I must say that I am in favor of them.
Thanks for the site!!!! Mwah!
I would never have thought about putting Nutella on top like that, but, it makes perfect sense and I will bet perfectly delicious! Congratulations on your first one down after surgery! The next one will get easier.
We all loved Katie @plantstoplanks and you made a great choice with her! But, you were missed! XOXO
Love to you and love your bundt cake!!! (and now I keep thinking in my head about the movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding and there was a scene with the bundt cake. It was hilarious. I will send you a clip if you haven't seen it.
Have a great night!

Oh my gosh Denise, you are reading my mind about that Big Fat Greek Wedding! I am always laughing about that one and the vegetarian. Oh okay. I make a lamb!!! And of course the Windex!!! ๐๐๐
Thank you so much my Dear Denise, for your support and cheerful comment. Lots of love and hugs ๐
It's a Bundt Cake! Bundt! Bundt! :)

Sending tips with @tipU - how to guide.
Oh this looks marvelous and delicious. And healthy! You can't beat that combination. I would make a big bowl of that chocolate and dip the cake in it, that would be fun. I love that cake design too although I almost got dizzy staring at it!
Howdy Janton! I truly wish I could send it to you! Now I am about to make Christmas cookies, so you should beam yourself here in couple of days, lol. Thank you so much for visiting and your cheerful comment ๐๐๐
I don't think I've ever heard of healthy Christmas cookies so that should make an interesting post!
You know me! First batch is almost ready. Tomorrow I have to combined them with healthy home made strawberry jam ๐๐๐
I can see a wonderful post taking form!
Thank you so much Janton ๐
You made that cake?! Wow, it looks amazing. I have to say, I'm not much of a cook and I doubt my attempt would come out like yours although...I'm a good eater so would know what to do with it if this cake was on the table in front of me! Very nice.
Oh yes, I did! It's not that difficult, I am sure you can do it. Thank you so much, I am glad you like it and I have no doubt you could eat it, lol.
I think it's the shape that wowed me...A cake tin I guess. Look, I tend to play towards my strengths and therefore will stick to eating cake, not making it. ๐คฃ Gotta know your limits and strengths right?
Yes it is the bundt form and it's available on Amazon. But I see you are not going to make it anyway ๐๐๐
Haha, nah I'm more of an eater than a cooker. ๐คฃ
