Apple – Pear Cake with Almond Cream Cheese Glaze and Chocolate
I bought a new mold for cakes, miniature bundt pans, and decided to try it out immediately. The weather is perfect for baking and the fall holidays are coming soon so the shape of bundt pans resemble little pumpkins. Also autumn ingredients like pears, apples, nuts, cinnamon, vanilla are a great idea for rich and moist cake for Halloween or Thanksgiving.
Instead of 6 small molds like I have you can use one large mold for bundt cake, just increase the ingredients and the baking time twice. And if you want to make a cake in the shape of a pumpkin, then first prepare one cake, and while it cools, prepare the second.

Next add the chocolate, remove the pan from the heat, and whisk until chocolate is completely dissolved. Continue whisking and pour the powdered sugar. Whisk until the glaze is smooth.
- Cool the cakes completely before frosting. Invert one cake so the flat part is facing upwards. Spread frosting on cake and top the second cake.
- Spoon over top of cake the chocolate glaze.
