Special Precautions and Tips:
- Be sure to layer the batter evenly to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake.
- If you do not have a bundt pan, you can use a regular round cake pan. However, the cake will not have the same distinct concentric rings.
- BaumKuchen is best served warm with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
