Paleo Indulgences: Chocolate Mini-Bundts

(Makes 6)

For A Great Birthday Cake Replacement, I double this! 

I made these for our niece’s birthday. She had actually skipped Paleo eating for the birthday weekend, but certainly enjoyed them the following week. The palm shortening for the frosting (recipe coming soon) was hard to find. I finally found it at Whole Food Store (in a tub). That shortening made the frosting creamy and totally delicious.
