Easter Bundt Cake with Dutch Eggnog

A delicious smooth cake for the Easter days! To make this cake extra smooth, I added some Dutch Eggnog. Since this also adds some extra sweetness, it’s great to add some lemon zest as well!

If you don’t have any eggnog, or you would like to make an alcohol-free version, you can replace the eggnog by sour cream or regular custard.

The Batter
