  9. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.

  11. Gently invert the bundt pan onto a serving plate to release the cake. Allow it to cool completely.

FAQ:
What ingredients do I need to make a pudding-filled bundt cake?
To make a pudding-filled bundt cake, you will need ingredients such as cake mix, instant pudding mix, eggs, oil, water, and any additional ingredients specified on the cake mix box. You will also need a bundt cake pan and non-stick cooking spray.
How do I prepare the pudding filling for the bundt cake?
To prepare the pudding filling, simply mix the instant pudding mix with milk according to the package instructions. Once the pudding is prepared, set it aside while you prepare the cake batter.
What is the best way to fill the bundt cake with pudding?
After preparing the cake batter, pour half of it into the greased bundt cake pan. Then, carefully spoon the prepared pudding over the batter, making sure to keep it away from the edges of the pan. Once the pudding is in place, pour the remaining cake batter over the pudding layer.
How do I ensure the pudding-filled bundt cake bakes evenly?
To ensure even baking, it’s important to preheat your oven and place the bundt cake pan in the center of the oven. You may also want to rotate the pan halfway through the baking time to promote even browning.
How can I tell when the pudding-filled bundt cake is done baking?
Use a toothpick or cake tester to check for doneness. Insert it into the cake portion (not the pudding layer) and if it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, the cake is ready. Be careful not to mistake the pudding layer for uncooked cake batter.
Should I let the pudding-filled bundt cake cool before removing it from the pan?
Yes, it’s important to let the cake cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely. This allows the cake to set and prevents it from breaking apart when removed from the pan.
