Description
Boston Cream Mini Bundt Cakes are delightful bite-sized treats filled with creamy vanilla pudding and topped with rich chocolate ganache.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup vanilla pudding (prepared)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini bundt cake pan with non-stick spray or butter.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fill each mini bundt cake cavity about 2/3 full with batter. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, use a small knife to create a hole in the center of each cake and fill it with prepared vanilla pudding.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips, stirring until melted and smooth.
- Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the filled mini bundt cakes. Let set for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of espresso powder to the chocolate ganache.
- Substitute the vanilla pudding with chocolate pudding for a double chocolate experience.
