🍶 Cream Cheese Glaze

  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract Optional but recommended

To ensure the cake releases cleanly, make sure the bundt pan is very well greased and floured. Letting the batter rest helps with texture and rise. Use a water bath in the oven for a steam bake method to avoid cracks in the cheesecake.
