I love my cupcake bundt pan. It is so much fun to serve up these little individual bundt cakes. These started with a lime flavored batter and when they cooled enough to remove from the pan, each got a dunk into a minty simple syrup and some minted sugar. They were delightful.

- 2 t. baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 1 c. sour cream

- 3 eggs
- zest and juice of 1 lg. lime
- 1 T. white rum

- 1/3 c. water
- 2 T. white rum
Mojito Sugar
- 1/2 c. sugar
- 1 t. lime zest
- 6 mint leaves
Instructions
Sugar
- Place the sugar, zest and mint into a food processor, pulse until mint is minced and ingredients are combined. Pour into a small bowl. Set aside.
Syrup
- Place the sugar and mint in a food processor. Pulse 2 or 3 times. Pour into a small saucepan.
- Add water and rum, bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for a few minutes until sugar is completely dissolved. Let steep for 10 minutes. Strain into a small bowl. Set aside.
Cakes
- In the small bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, mix together the sour cream and sugar on low until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing after each. Add the lime zest, juice and rum, mixing until incorporated.
- With the mixer on low speed add the flour, baking powder and salt until combined. Add the oil and mix on low until incorportated.
- Divide the batter between the mini cupcake bundt pan cups that have been liberally treated with baking spray.
- Bake in a preheated 350* oven for 20-25 minutes until a skewer inserted removes cleanly.
- Let cupcakes rest in pan on wire rack for 5 minutes before turning them out onto the rack. Take each cupcake and dunk it first in the bowl containing the syrup and immediately into the minted sugar to coat.
- Let cool completely before serving.
Notes:
Leftover simple syrup can be used to make mojitos, rim the glasses with the leftover minted sugar
