Chocolate Ganache Pumpkin Patch Bundt Cakes
The combination of pumpkin and chocolate Ganache will make these moist and delicious Pumpkin Bundt Cakes a prize winner at your Thanksgiving dinner. I want to eat every one of them right off the screen!
I knooow you probably have had enough pumpkin recipes….but I couldn’t resist one more.
These yummy, moist, and flavorful pumpkin bundt cakes will keep your guests coming back for more.
This recipe is an old family favorite. It’s been a family tradition for years….because it’s one of the best cakes EVER!
It’s made with sour milk. At first, I thought sour milk?? Then I learned that sour milk is not the same as spoiled milk.
Sour milk is simply milk mixed with either lemon juice or vinegar to give it a tart flavor, aka buttermilk. I will refer to as buttermilk, it sounds better than saying sour milk.
It will curdle a tiny bit, and that’s what it’s suppose to do.
Here’s a tip, replace milk with buttermilk in most cake recipes for a wonderful, homemade flavor.
Topped with chocolate ganache is the icing on the cake. Literally!
My kitty always watches me bake. I love her brown colors, I always say she has her Fall colors on.
Here’s the quick and easy recipe printable. Enjoy!
