Mini Orange Chocolate Chunk Cake

This is the first time I baked the same thing twice in the same week! It was that good! First, because I recently came to discover that my little brother loves chocolate and orange as much as I do so I wanted to make it for him. And second, because my mom liked it so much she wanted it for her Birthday.

If you recall, I made the bundt version of this cake awhile back, but something about these little minis was soooo much better! The recipe can be found here.

I used a Martha Stewart mini bundt pan, made by Nordic Ware that was only $8 on clearance at Kmart. These baby cakes slid right out of the pan-it was incredible! I must buy more Nordic Ware soon!

I took a lot of pictures this time because I couldn't resist. They are just so darn cute!

Orange Chocolate Chunk Cake

If you like citrus and chocolate together, this cake is for you!

Ina Garten or Barefoot Contessa, whatever you would like to call her, has never let me down!
I love all of her recipes and enjoy her show.





I used Ghiradelli bittersweet chocolate instead of semisweet because that is all I had. I would definitely recommend using semi-sweet though.

Between all of the orange juice, zest and the dark chocolate, this cake is actually full of anti-oxidants, ha!



The orange and chocolate combination is so simple yet sophisticated and very Italian!
