Mini Orange Bundts with a Grand Marnier Glaze

I just joined this fun group and will bring you this Mini Orange Bundts with a Grand Marnier Glaze for Tangy January #BundtaMonth. Some familiar faces, some new, all giving you amazing bundt cakes month after month.

January is called Tangy January and the theme is citrus. I hummed and hawed about what to make but then just before Christmas I found a little present for myself and nabbed this gorgeous bundt cake pan that makes little one. I made the first batch but filled them too much so had to make a second one.

Special Occasions

Not that Amber was upset as she loved them and we also served them for New Year’s Eve. A delightful orange flavor that came shining through from a bunch of different orange sources. Orange juice, orange extract, orange zest, and orange yogurt. You would think it would be too much flavor but it was just right.

Then I added a little Grand Marnier glaze and that just finished it off perfectly. I am so happy to share this with you today being my very first bundt cake in a very long time. Enjoy, it is a perfect cake for any time of the year!!!

Ingredients

 

Cakes

• 1/2 cup butter softened
• 1 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp. orange extract
• 2 Tbsp. orange juice
• Zest of an orange
• 2 cups cake flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 170 gm. container orange yogurt or a scant 1/2 cup
• 1/2 cup buttermilk

Glaze

• 1/3 cup icing sugar
• 1 Tbsp. Grand Marnier
• 2-3 drops orange extract
• Water for desired consistency

Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour a six-cup mini bundt pan.
• In a large bowl of a standup mixer with a paddle attachment blend butter and sugar together for 2 min. on medium speed until light and fluffy.
• Add eggs, orange extract, orange juice, and orange zest and blend. Mix flour with the salt and baking soda and add to the mixture along with the yogurt and buttermilk.
• Beat for 2 min. scraping down the bowl often.
• Divide the batter among the cavities to 3/4 full. I also made four cupcakes for the size of the pan I had. Don’t overfill as you won’t have a pretty result with them oozing over the edge.
• Bake for 20-25min. Cool in pan for 10 min. Invert onto rack and cool completely. Prepare glaze and drizzle over each cake. Serve at once or store them up to two days.
