Instructions
- For the Cakes
- Preheat the oven to 350° F and lightly spray a mini Bundt pan with nonstick baking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and lemon zest.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and Greek yogurt. Next add the milk, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix just until combined - do not overmix.
- Fill each well half-full with batter.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the Bundt cakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the Frosting
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and robin’s egg food coloring. The icing should be smooth and pourable. If it is too thick, add an additional tablespoon of heavy cream and whisk to combine. If it is too thin, add an additional tablespoon of powdered sugar.
- Dip the cooled Bundt cakes in the icing and place them back on the wire rack. Allow the icing to set completely before adding the speckles.
- In a small bowl, stir together the vodka and black food coloring. Use a food-safe brush or a small fork to flick little black specks onto the bundt cakes. Be careful – food coloring will stain clothing, counter, walls, etc.
- To finish, top each Bundt cake with a few candy eggs.
