After just one bite of this scrumptious cake, you really won’t be able to stop till your buttons burst.

Still warm from the oven, this beautiful Bundt from home cook Angela Gray is not only served with a decadent vanilla butter glaze, but while it’s still in the pan it’s first pierced with a fork and drenched in butter glaze.

The cake is delicious on its own, but try serving it with fruit or ice cream. The only problem is, you may not be able to share.
