Pumpkin Bundt Cake  with Caramel Icing is my  recipe of the day with  the  blogging  group  Bundt Bakers. We get together once per  month  to bakeup  sweet treats in our Bundt pans.

Pumpkin Bundt Cake

This  month we have baked up our  favorite pumpkin Bundt cakes. I decided to  do a nice moist cake  sans any raisins or  nuts. Since I make my pumpkin quick breads that way a  lot. Instead,  I have drenched the  outside of my cake  with a caramel icing .

The icing  is easy to  make  on the stove top with just a few simple ingredients. Then just drizzle over and it sets up nicely with an  incredible caramel flavor.

  1. That looks so moist and delicious. I wish I could stick my fork right through my monitor to your kitchen, Sue. I’m so thrilled that I found this baking group. What fun.

    • I recall joining to pad out my amount of cakes on the blog and am glad I did. I have to watch how much sugar I eat, so I don’t make many sweets for myself. But it has been a ton of fun making desserts for everyone else!

    • I know what you mean! It has just that right amount to add caramel flavor. Without having to scrape a bunch off.
