#BundtBakers is a group of Bundt loving bakers who get together once a month to bake Bundts with a common ingredient or themeYou can see all of our lovely Bundts by following our Pinterest board. We take turns hosting each month and choosing the theme/ingredient. Updated links for all of our past events and more information about BundtBakers, can be found on our home page.
I started this cake with a boxed mix and gave homage to my Mom by adding crushed Hersheys Almond Bar to the cream cheese frosting and topping it with additional broken pieces.
So this is it. My mom was the Queen of convenience food by the time I came along as the 5th out of 6 children. My eldest brother is 17 years my senior and the brother closest to my age was 5 when I was born. My sister was born 6 years later. By that point convenience food had turned into going out or ordering in LOL. Can't say as I blame her. I love being in the kitchen but that doesn't mean that I don't take shortcuts or enjoy meals out.

Thank Pato.
DeleteYour siblings are incredibly far apart in age! I hope they all baked something to honor your mother this month. Hershey with almonds does sound good -- I haven't eaten one of those in ages (specializing in other candy bars).
