Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a Bundt pan with cooking spray with flour, see shopping tip below.

3. Fill Bundt pan and spread the batter evenly. Shake the pan a few times to make the batter is even on top.

5. To make the frosting-using a mixer, whip the cream cheese until smooth. Add the powder sugar, milk and mix until smooth. It should be somewhat thick.
