So sorry to hear, I will see about getting some testers to try it out, for now the only thing I can suggest is not making it in a bundt pan, maybe as a sheet cake it would work better.
I’ve made this recipe a few times now, in hopes that I’ll luck out because it tastes DELICIOUS, but each time it ends up partially raw on the inside – even after leaving it in the oven for almost 1 hr and 10 mins. I’d love to hear some tips because it is so yummy, but I just took another attempt out of my bundt pan and it’s a complete mess. A delicious mess – but not one I can serve to company! Any tips?
Why do you agree that it needs a bundt pan and not a tube pan? Size, appearance?
My cake just came out of the oven , it looks and smells yummy.Can’t wait to frost it and serve a slice to my Hubby.
I agree this cake needs a bunt pan and not a tube pan.
Oh, sure that would be fine. Only question would still be size.
Is there a difference in the size of a bundt pan and tube pan?
I love it. I will make it for this shabbat. I dont use margarin at all so I will use oil instead.
There are three eggs listed.
You will lose the beauty if you make it in a rectangle and the only other issue is the size. But you could try a 13×9 and if there is extra make muffins.
I was thinking of a tube pan. Do you think that would work?
You can try, should be okay.
esta torta no lleva huevo?
gracias
can you substitute oil for margarine here???
Why do so many recipes call for melted chocolate chips? These morsels are NOT designed to be melted. They were made the way they are in order to keep their shape during baking. If a recipe calls for melted chocolate, just chop up a bar!!
Sounds great! Can you use a baking pan other than a bundt pan for this recipe?
