It’s obvious by the state of the card that this recipe is well loved. My in house source says that this cake was a frequent occurrence in my grandmas baking rotation and that she would bring it often to church.
I recommend you make this ASAP. This cake is so friggin good. It’s like crossover between a donut and a coffee cake. 10/10 will be making this again and again.
Fun fact: it took us purchasing and returning two Bundt pans till we found one that wasn’t scratched up

This recipe has definitely been in my rotation. I made this for Christmas last month and my sister loved it. Admittedly I will sometimes do a double glaze because glaze is life.
