One of my favorites - Italian Creme Bundt cake made from scratch!!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Make this Bundt cake the next time you need a special dessert. It has all the flavor of an Italian Creme Cake without all the work. The cake itself is airy, fluffy, and moist. We love how the coconut and walnuts flavor to the cake. The homemade frosting is very easy to work with. It's not stiff and full of buttery flavor. Once decorated, this Bundt cake tastes as good as it looks.
