Glazed Lime Cream Cheese Mini Bundt Cake
Description
These mini bundt cakes start with a batter made by creaming together softened cream cheese, butter, and sugar until smooth and fluffy. Fresh lime zest and juice provide a citrus flavor that permeates the cake, offering a subtle tang. Eggs are incorporated one at a time to ensure a smooth texture, followed by milk and a dry mixture of flour, baking powder, and salt to produce a batter that’s rich but pourable.
The cake batter is spooned into well-greased mini bundt molds, filling each about three-quarters full, and baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cooling the cakes slightly before unmolding preserves their shape and texture.
The lime glaze is a simple mixture of powdered sugar whisked with fresh lime juice and lime zest until smooth and pouring consistency is reached, then spooned over the cooled mini bundt cakes, enhancing the lime flavor and adding a glossy finish.
This recipe yields enough batter to make one regular-sized bundt cake, adjustable by baking time. The combination of cream cheese and lime creates a moist, tangy dessert suitable for gatherings or everyday enjoyment.
