Notes

  1. If you are not comfortable making a Bundt Cake you can use a normal cake pan, that way you can add some parchment paper. This is a very soft cake so it can be tricky getting it out of a bundt pan if not greased well
  2. If you don't have sour cream you can use yogurt or milk. The texture may not be exactly the same but it will be close enough
  3. Although I say drizzle the butter in slowly. I promise I have also just dumped the flour and butter into the bowl and gave it a quick mix and it turned out perfecty fine. In fact maybe this way it's less mixing
