I would like to use my mini bundt pan - but how do you make them without getting that awful thick crust that is either chewy or hard? Anyone have any good tips?

No tips from me....I like the "chewy" crust. icon_smile.gif If it's getting hard you might be baking it too long.

I would like to know the answer there, too icon_smile.gif as my poppy seed cake in my tube pan always does that...

The first thing I learned (the hard way) is to cake release (cake goop in my case) and then also spray it with PAM. I had a lot of mini bunt cakes stick when I've never had a cake stick in my life.

Next, what temp do you bake on? I'd bake at 350 at the most. And maybe do a practice cake to see when you should take them out. Your desired doneness.

I have bunt I make that I love the crust to be a little on the toasty side.

I bake at 325 - that seems to help! I too, am not a fan of a hard crust on any cake.
