Easy Bake Oven Mini Cakes

February 2, 2017

Today we’re making miniature cakes in an Easy Bake Oven! 😀 And as promised, here’s the video of how to decorate the oven. More notes below!

Decoration Notes

  • Contact paper – similar
  • Sticker paper
  • Template for the contact paper coming soon! I’m hoping to put it up here 2/2/17. If I haven’t done it by 2/3/17, bug me in the YouTube comments ?
  • Kawaii face

But what if I don’t have an Easy Bake Oven?

  • No worries! Here’s some options:
    • Bake the yellow cake recipe in a 4″ round cake pan. I would go for 350 F and about 8-10 minutes, but keep a close eye on it.
    • Bake the yellow cake recipe in a mini loaf pan. I would go for 350 F and about 8-10 minutes, but keep a close eye on it.
    • Make this a mug cake! Pour the batter into a microwave safe mug that’s been greased with cooking spray, then microwave for 2-3 minutes – you’ll definitely want to keep an eye on it though since I haven’t personally tried this method. Then let cool, remove from mug, cut into thin slices and then cut those thin slices with cookie cutters!

Instructions
Yellow Cake
  1. Preheat oven for 20 minutes and grease rectangular pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, white sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside
  3. In a separate bowl, melt together milk and butter until melted and smooth. Mix in vanilla extract, then add to dry ingredients and stir to combine. Batter may have lumps, but these will bake out.
  4. Pour half of batter into prepared pan. Batter should go almost all the way to the top of the pan - about 1/8" away from top. Tap down pan to release air bubbles, then bake in oven for 12 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then turn cake out onto a cooling rack. Repeat for the remaining batter.
Buttercream Frosting
  1. Mix half melted butter until smooth and no lumps show. Stir in 1/2 cup powdered sugar, then mix in vanilla. Add in 2-3 T powdered sugar to adjust consistency.
Chocolate Glaze
  1. Melt chocolate chips in microwave at 15 second intervals until completely smooth. Mix in canola oil very well until no streaks show.

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F and grease an 8" x 8" pan with cooking spray. Line the pan with a parchment paper sling, then re-grease lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir in eggs until combined, then gently fold in cocoa powder. Finally, mix in flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 20-25 min, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let brownies cool in the pan, then refrigerate to chill completely. This will make it much easier to cut the brownies cleanly with cookie cutters.
  4. Once brownies are chilled, remove from pan and cut with cookie cutters. Decorate with frosting and sprinkles, place in mini cupcake liners, and arrange in chocolate box.
