That Kentucky Butter Cake!!

This is no ordinary bundt cake. A winner of the 1963 Pillsbury Bake-Off Kentucky butter cake is perhaps the most tender and moist of all bundt cakes. The reason? Vanilla-infused melted butter is poured over the cake while it's still warm seeping into every nook and cranny. The resulting cake is buttery and sweet with a golden sugar crust.

Another thing to love about this cake: the batter ingredients are mixed together all at once. There’s no need to beat the butter and sugar first or to alternate between adding the dry ingredients and the milk. It’s as easy as using a cake mix. And the butter-sugar sauce is a snap to make: all you have to do is heat the ingredients until the butter is melted.

Bake this cake for a special event or party or bring it to a potluck dinner: everyone will be impressed. Oh and bring a few copies of the recipe to share.
