FOR GINGERBREAD MINI BUNDT CAKES:

- Beat eggs, oil, and fresh ginger in small bowl and set aside.
- Heat beer in large saucepan over medium-high heat until boiling. Remove from heat and slowly add baking soda. Once beer stops foaming, add molasses and brown sugar. Stir in flour mixture, 1/3 at a time, mixing well after adding. Stir in eggs until combined. Batter will be thin.
