Tips for Butterscotch Swirl Cake

  • For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar in the cake batter.
  • To make the butterscotch swirl, be sure to use a good quality butterscotch pudding mix. This will ensure that the swirl has a rich and creamy flavor.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziploc bag with the corner snipped off to create the swirl.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the cake.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • For a more professional look, use a star tip to pipe the frosting onto the cake.
