friday said:This is my new show recipe. I tried this out tonight and it is very easy to do, and very yummy. I have my next 3 hosts all set to do it. YIPPEE!! I haven't loved a recipe this much since Hot Broccoli Dip.
ChefBeckyD said:I'm liking this recipe - but what do you do about larger shows? My show tomorrow is expecting 18-20 guests....and I have 2 sets of prep bowls, but not 3.....
friday said:Cut them in half once you have shown them.
Be sure not to use more than 2 medium scoops of batter or they will not cook through. There will be NO extra batter.
Oh, and double the recipe using a regular sized cake mix.
Yeah, it's on the PC website. It's under the Products and Recipes in the center section. Go to the "sweet and simple link" and it takes you right to it!byrd1956 said:Was this recipe posted somewhere??

Maybe you can borrow a prep bowl set from someone.
I was ready to give away my 2 cup measuring cup until I saw this recipe ...
GourmetGirl said:My only complaint about the recipe is the nutrition information... did y'all read that?!?!
wadesgirl said:Plus they only give you 2 prep bowls in the kit which means all new consultants will have to go out and buy a full set. It is really worth it to have a full set!

karaboo2 said:Umm ... not sure that's a good thing, since you loved the broccoli dip so much you dipped yourself out!!!! How long will it be before you don't even want to hear the word lemon???
wadesgirl said:I want to make these so bad. If a host wants these, be sure to know how many people are coming. You can always serve them cut in half but that only serves 12 people.

I do a no demo show - think I can prep these before hand and put them in the micro at the end of the show? Or just have them set out all pretty on the round platter during the show?
friday said:I own 2 sets of prep bowls and they are in constant use even before I met this recipe.
These are best served warm. I tried the extras cool this morning and-- not so much. I would micro them there- no reason you cant do the batter in advance though.
Just remember you also need to microwave the glaze.wadesgirl said:I prepare the recipe at the host's house just wasn't for sure if I should microwave them before the show or towards the end. I could just have the set in the microwave and while they are filling out their customer care cards and we do doorprizes, they can be cooking. Cannot wait to try this recipe.
ChefNic said:some recipes i've made with egg, if you don't cook it right away it will be flat.
wouldn't this happen with these cakes?
So the Medium Scoop is what they use...?? I don't have the medium, just the small and large...guess I could use two scoops of the small to equal one medium scoop.
AHHH...I have this show TONIGHT, and still can't decide what dessert to do with the BBQ pork sandwiches!
that chocolate strawberry cake sounds good too...but ..hmmm i'm not sure I want to cook EVERYTHING in the microwave tonight...so maybe i'll go with something all together different!
I better get crackin'!
that's what I was thinking! A lot of times people can add apple sauce in stead of butter, but I don't know how to change that, and I don't know if it would do anything to the flavor of it considering lemon is more intense flavor than chocolate. Chocolate is easy to disguise other things into it!ShanaSmith said:you should be able to substitute fat free sour cream and egg substitute without a problem. I do it all the time with my micro cakes
ChefNic said:OMG>..I SooOO love the Prep Bowls...DEFINITELY worth getting the whole set. I often just take 2 or 3 to a show, but at home...I've been feeling like I should get another set even before this recipe!
I suggest to guests to make the individual 'omlet' in them in the microwave, everyone loves that tip. I say "mix one egg, add cheese and other of your favorite omlet ingredients. Stack them in the fridge, and in the morning when the kids come down for breakfast before school - or anytime- they can take it out, remove the lid, micro for one minute...THAT'S much healthier than a POP TART! "
And I love the tip about using the Chef's Tongs to remove it from the microwave!
I use them to store leftovers, melt butter/chocolate in micro, measure, --everyone loves the Batter Bowls...so they'll love these mini versions!
:love:
The ingredients needed for this recipe are:
Yes, you can use any flavor of cake mix that you prefer. However, lemon cake mix will give the best flavor for these mini cakes.
No, you can use a regular muffin tin to make these mini cakes. Just be sure to grease the tin well before filling it with the cake batter.
The mini cakes should bake for about 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of a cake - if it comes out clean, they are ready to be removed from the oven.
Yes, you can make the glaze ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it. Just be sure to let it come to room temperature before drizzling it over the cooled mini cakes.
