Fun fact about me: I will basically eat chocolate banana anything. Really. Remember when I made those Chocolate Covered Frozen Banana Pops earlier this month for the return of Arrested Development? I ate all of them by myself. I didn’t even mention to anyone else that they were in the freezer. So when I learned that Corner Bakery sells baby bundt cakes that were chocolate and banana and walnut, I was immediately sold. It was probably the best dessert I have ever had from the restaurant, which is saying something because I have tried almost every single one. I immedaitely went home and tried to recreate it. Although the pictures do not do the recipe justice, the cakes were amazing. I might have had two at one time. Maybe.
