Mini chocolate Bundt cake recipe ( Mini Bundt cakes de chocolate)

 

This post is about bundt cakes and chocolate, I haven't made something with chocolate in a long time.

Although I love chocolate, what I like the most is making recipes with fruits, especially berries.

As I always took time choosing the recipe, nothing is accidental, I see something and say I have to do it and that is where everything begins, in this time I have read a lot of recipes and books.

Then I prepare everything and make some changes and finally see what dishes I would like for the photos. Oh, it is a long process until I take the photos.

I see it as a process that takes time, dedication and a lot of love.
I like the mini bundt cakes because I like the small portions, I had seen several recipes and finally I stayed with this one.

Very good recipe,  and I hope you enjoy it too, a hug for all

and thanks to be there,   Gloria

Blueberry lemon mini bundt cakes (mini bundt cakes de limon y arandanos)

  This is another recipe I wanted to make some time ago and finally I could because my arm is better although it still hurts. (The doctor says it takes several months to get well again but really I feel better)

About these delicious mini bundt cakes I used small molds that can be found in E-bay here or Amazon.

They are made of silicone and that's why they are good for unmolding, but you could also make a big bundt cake in one mold  with this recipe.

In many parts you still have blueberries and in this recipe you can use fresh or frozen.
 I always freeze berries  in the summer to have in our winter.

Send you greetings and hugs to all who stopping  by here. Thank you!
