IRISH CREAM BUNDT CAKE

IRISH CREAM BUNDT CAKE

Olivia found this outstanding recipe at www.recipegirl.com.  If you are still struggling with what to serve for Easter dessert, this is a superb choice.  The inside is moist with just the right amount of Irish  cream taste and the nut crust on a he outside is scrumptious!  My husband is not usually a big cake eater , but this one had him begging for more.  It doesn’t have to be a special occasion to make you want to try this cake.  It is wonderful!
