I wanted to try something different so I combined chocolate cake with buttermilk pie filling. The taste is so so moist! These little miniature cakes are the "poster child" for the cake pops! They are tiny, bite size mini bundt cakes. I made these batch of minis for the office and it was a hit. I just had to blog about it @ www.shugbundtcakes.wordpress.com. Check it out!

Add this mixture to the flour mixture, and stir. Pour the buttermilk, eggs, baking soda and vanilla into a measuring cup, stir gently. Add this to the batter and combine.

    Pour half into each individual baking cups [or a 1/3, it's your preference on how much chocolate you want in each pan] but pour chocolate batter into prepared mini bundt cake pan and then pour buttermilk pie filling on top, making it about 1/3 full for each mini bundt cup, giving it room to rise. Bake at 350º for 20 minutes or use the toothpick test for dryness but these little cakes bakes fast.
