Q&A: How do I make “mini cakes” in a microwave?
Question by : How do I make “mini cakes” in a microwave?
Well, I’m in a great mood to make some desserts today! 🙂
I wanted to make some ‘mini cakes’ (Like one of those cakes in the Easy Bake products)
I have one of those Easy Bake trays, but I don’t wanna use the oven it came with because the light bulb died, and I don’t have another one… So, yeah XD
But I do have some Chocolat Betty Crocker cake mix in the house! As well as white chocolate and Nutella… 🙂
Can you guys/gals help me with an recipe on what to make with these items that I currently have?
Thanks, xoxox

Mini Peanut Butter Crunch Ice Cream Cakes:
Blogger Cheri Liefeld of Adventures in the Kitchen shares a favorite recipe. The classic combination of peanut butter and chocolate makes these mini ice cream cakes taste like a frozen candy bar.
Ingredients:
1 Betty Crocker® fudge brownie mix
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on brownie mix box
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (6 oz)
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup crisp rice cereal
1 pint (2 cups) peanut butter cup ice cream, softened
1 jar hot fudge topping
2 chocolate-covered peanut butter cup candies, unwrapped, cut crosswise in half
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350?F. Spray 2 (8-inch) round cake pans with cooking spray; line with cooking parchment paper. Make brownies as directed on box, using water oil and eggs. Divide batter evenly between pans.
2. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean. Cool completely in pans on cooling racks. Use parchment paper to lift out of pan. With 2 1/4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 6 rounds from each brownie. Place 8 of the rounds on cookie sheet; set remaining 4 rounds aside.
3. In 2-quart saucepan, heat chocolate chips and peanut butter until melted. Remove from heat; stir in cereal until coated. Spread thin layer of cereal mixture over 8 brownie rounds on cookie sheet. Freeze 15 minutes.
4. Remove brownies from freezer. Top each with small scoop of ice cream; stack 1 brownie round on top of another. Top each stack with 1 plain brownie round; press gently. (Clean up sides of cakes with knife, if necessary.) Top with dollop of hot fudge topping. Garnish with candy half.
Tips:
Do-Ahead
Make the brownies a day ahead and then assemble with the ice cream, hot fudge topping and peanut butter cup candies just before serving.
Substitution
Use a chocolate cake mix instead of brownie mix.
