Рецепт Chocolate Cherry Bundtlets – #BundtaMonth
Chocolate Cherry Bundtlets – #BundtaMonth
I finally decided to join in on the fun with Anurada, Lora and the rest of the Bundta Month crew with this month’s theme, cherries. I’ve had chocolate on my mind so and cherries and chocolate work like a charm for me.
There was a chocolate pound cake recipe that I really wanted to use but I didn’t feel like going upstairs to get the milk. I had already made several round trips upstairs and another one wasn’t happening. This started the internet search for another recipe. Most of them called for milk or sour cream, except the one that I decided on. I pretty much annihilated the original recipe, but the results were pretty darn tasty. My changes are bolded.
- #Chocolate Cherry Bundtlets – Adapted from Sierra Mist’s Cranberry Chocolate Bundt Cake
- 1 cup chocolate chips (melted and cooled)
- 2 tablespoons vanilla (I was very skeptical of 2 TBS so I used 2 tsp)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (omitted)
- 1 teaspoon lime zest (omitted)1 ½ cups softened unsalted butter (1 cup plus ½ cup + 2 TBS canola oil)
- 3 cups Sugar (2 cups)
- 5 large eggs
- 2 ½ cups AP flour
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- ½ cup Sprite
- ¼ maraschino cherry juice
- ½ cup chopped maraschino cherries
- Cherry Vodka Glaze
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and lightly flour a 6 cup mini bundt pan. Melt chocolate in a double boiler, allow to cool and add vanilla extract. I almost freaked out at this point because the chocolate started to seize. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl for 3 minutes, or until fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add cooled chocolate mixture and stir until combined. Add the flour and cocoa powder in thirds, alternating with Sprite and cherry juice mixture. Fold in the chopped maraschino cherries. Bake for 40 minutes or until cake tests done. Turn onto wire rack and immediately brush on the glaze.
Cherry Vodka Glaze – 2 TBS cherry vodka, 2 TBS maraschino cherry juice, 4 TBS powdered sugar. Whisk until smooth and apply to cake.

It’s great to be able to show my clients how to have their cake and eat it too. Life is truly too short not to have dessert. As long as you have the best natural ingredients and enjoy them in moderation it’s OK.
For the last twenty-five years I’ve been a cake decorator. Try as I might I can’t get it out of my blood, so I’ve decided to stop fighting it and go with the flow. Who say’s you can’t have it all?
