For less than $5, I’m honestly not sure why I didn’t put these mini cakes with the most indulgent-looking cider sauce in my cart after I snapped the picture for the sake of this article. Regret has set in.

Listen, I am not a chocolate cake fan, but for $4 (and for how moist this bundt cake looked), I had to try one of these. I highly recommend you do the same.
Bake Shop Dutch Apple Pie with Cinnamon
