    • Hello Rochelle,
      Sorry for the delay but you will want to use a 9-inch tube or Bundt pan for this recipe! Hope it turns out!

  • The recipe I use calls for a Bundt pan. When the cake is done and it is still hot I use a wooden skewer to poke holes in the cake. While it is still hot. Spoon the butter sauce all over the top and let it sit for 10-15 minutes before taking it out of the pan.

    • Thank you for the clarification. Carolina didn't tell me anything that wasn't already in the recipe! I'm guessing a tube pan is a loaf pan. But i like your version of poking holes.....I'm making it tomorrow..Happy Easter!
