This cake was fabulous, cannot believe sarahjwitt has such trouble. I used the buttermilk and also used an 8 oz Daisy sour cream. Even though I greased and floured my bundt pan, I still had a little trouble getting it to come out but I just put it in the fridge to cool down more even though it was cool to the touch. It came out, I used a can cream frosting to cover some of the blemishes but it was amazing, so moist, amazing and very easy.

Delicious! I used buttermilk and followed the directions on the box to adjust the oven temperature for baking in my non-stick pans. The cake was moist and it was indeed easy.
