Re-Doing Before Re-Imagining

Re-imagining baked goods is my favorite thing to do in the kitchen.  Oftentimes, however, I have to make the original recipe first in order to decide what to re-imagine later.  That is precisely what happened with this bit of moist and delectable deliciousness.

I made this chocolate orange bundt cake for a breakfast at work a few days ago.  I was intrigued by the contrast of bold flavors that is versatile enough for both the early mornings and the late nights.  The orange was incredible on many different levels.  I was excited about the orange flavor, but also about the potential for other flavor combinations--almond, peppermint, pumpkin, black and white.  Yum.
