• Microwave
• Bundt cake
• Cooling Rack
• Spoon
• Powdered sugar

Instructions

1. When the Bundt cake is done baking, turn it upside down on a baking rack to cool. Gently wiggle the cake around using a spatula torelease from the pan.

2. Remove the lid and foil seal from the tub of frosting. Put it in the microwave for a few seconds. The time varies depending on the microwave. The goal is to get it to be soft, but not runny.

3. Put the Bundt cake on the platter from which you will be serving it. Using a spoon, drizzle the icing down the sides of the cake. You should only need to use about half of the can.
