Can Cakes

THIS WEEK’S CRAVINGS Linky Party #54
The Theme is: Happy Birthday to This Weeks Cravings
(Please share with us your favorite Cake Recipe)

Cake is good, but icing is better. It’s kind of how I feel about cake. 

I like cake, I do, but I’m not a huge cake person. I am horrible at making cakes, icing cakes, decorating cakes. I just don’t have the patience, I suppose. 

But Little cakes? I can handle little cakes. 

These little cakes are baked in cans. Cans! 

Like the kind you get vegetables and canned soup in. 

How cute would these be for a party? Not cupcakes! But Mini Tall Cakes for everyone! So cool!

Or Maybe you just need a little cake to satisfy that cake craving. Maybe you want to surprise someone with a little birthday cake? Whatever it is, these little cake are pretty neat. 

Now, don’t judge these little cakes on my pictures, I’m a horrible cake decorator.  But hubby loved it, that’s all that matters 😉

You can use any cake batter recipe you want with these, I just wanted to share my favorite all time cake recipe with you. 
Can Cakes
Makes about 12 cakes (depending on how full you fill the cans)
(but I just make one at a time, using batter from the fridge or freezer)
(Printable Recipe Here)
What you need:

Cans- Both top and bottom removed, washed and label free
Cooking Spray
Aluminum Foil 
Your Favorite Icing

Chocolate Cake:

1 box chocolate cake mix
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
1 cup water
3 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

What to do:

Preheat over to 350F.

In a large bowl mix the Cake Mix, Flour and Sugar. Set aside.

In a stand mixer,beat together the sour cream, water, eggs, and vanilla until creamy. 

Slowly add in the dry ingredients until well mixed. 

Cover the bottoms of your cans with aluminum foil. Set on a cookie sheet.

Fill each can 1/2 way with batter.

Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until done. 

Once done, remove from oven and let cool. 

Remove foil and pop cakes out of the can.

Meet Angie

I love the Farmer’s Market and Farm to Table meals but I’m also not ashamed to use canned vegetables and baking mixes. It’s all about balance! I’m so glad y’all are here!
