💖 Why I Love This Recipe

This cake is like three desserts in one: it has the soft richness of a pound cake, the sweet comfort of a cobbler, and the eye-catching elegance of a glazed bundt. It’s easy enough for casual bakers but impressive enough for guests. And thanks to sour cream and whole milk in the batter, it’s ultra-moist and fluffy.
