Just got the square bundt pan after searching for it for so long locally… found this nice recipe on the back. Apprehensive at first, but the ratios were very similar to a pound cake I’ve baked before.
Followed to the T….. the volume perfectly matched this pan… slight dome with top to the edge of the pan (baked in one of those 1/2 height ovens so top may have been a little darker than if baked in full size overn).
The cake had a nice crust/edge all around. The crumb light. Great texture. The icing adds sweetness but not too sweet and you can always leave off and serve on the side.
Note I did bake to only 55min as experience has showed that is a more appropriate time for my oven.
Thanks!

I thought the cake was to dry,would baking it less time make a difference? Can more milk be added to the recipe
