Can i make a tart filling as a cake?
Comments (1)Sure! Any pie/tart filling could be made on its own. Not really a cake but more a pudding i think. Might consider using individual serving in ramekins or jars... Google 'pie in a jar', 'pudding in a jar', or desserts in a jar'. Seems a popular thing for gifting or picnics to bake single servings in small canning jars. Easy to travel with lids and no need to slice and serve on plates. Might want to bake resting in a couple inches of water like a custard....See MoreMiniature pies in muffin tins?
Comments (8)Here are 2 cooked pumpkin pie recipes from Farm Journal cookbook. Hope you enjoy them. Clare Farm Journal's Pumpkin Chiffon Tarts 10 baked (4-inch) tart shells 1 envelope unflavored gelatin 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice 3 eggs, separated 3/4 cup milk 1 1/4 cups cooked, mashed pumpkin 1/2 cup white sugar Whipped cream (optional) Combine gelatin, brown sugar, salt and spice in saucepan. Combine egg yolks and milk, stir into gelatin mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat, add pumpkin. Chill until mixture mounds when dropped from a spoon. Beat egg whites (at room temperature) until foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold into pumpkin mixture. Spoon mixture evenly into tart shells. Chill until firm. Garnish with whipped cream, if desired. Farm Journal's Sour Cream Pumpkin Pie Baked 9-inch pie shell 1 envelope unflavored gelatin 1/4 cup cold water 3 eggs, separated 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1 1/4 cups pumpkin puree, fresh or canned 1/2 cup sour cream 1/2 tsp. salt 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/4 tsp. cloves 1/4 tsp. nutmeg 1/4 tsp. ginger 1 cup heavy cream, whipped 1 cup sifted confectioner's sugar 1 tsp. vanilla, or 1/2 t. vanilla and 1/2 tsp. rum extract 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional) Soften gelatin in water.

Comments (11)I love all this shopping talk!! Maybe we could have a thread..Weekly Finds...for our new cooking things and dishes, etc..LOL I love seeing everyone's new cooking gadgets, pans, dishes, etc. I can shop vicariously... Michelle, are you looking for ceramic mini pans or aluminum? My source for alum mini pans closed, and the supermarket was the only place to find them, but not cost effective. To order from supply places, you have to order sooo many, I am afraid I won't be baking long enough to use them! And Clare, your tarts look delicious, and great idea freezing them, portion control!...See MoreMini muffin tin appetizers
Comments (18)Annie, those tomato bacon cups look great. I might use pie crust (premade, even) in lieu of the buttermilk biscuits. I'm not a fan of canned biscuits. And I think when the biscuits rise, they will take up too much space in a mini muffin cup. Thinking "out loud" here, wonder if you could crush Ritz crackers or something similar, and pat them into the mini cups for a crust. I think if you did, the filling would have to be something with some inherent structure - something that sets up in the shape of the cup and stays that way. Something that doesn't depend on the crust to contain it. One thing I keep on hand for quick canapes is mini phyllo cups. They are in the frozen food case at my local grocery, but I noticed the last package I bought said, "may be stored frozen, refrigerated, or at room temperature." What else is there? Slip phyllo cup into each cup of your mini muffin tin. Fill with a small amount of cheese (I prefer brie or blue cheese). Run into a 350 degree oven until the cheese melts - about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and top with a dab of jam. I like strawberry or fig on the blue cheese. On the brie, I like fig or pepper jelly. Best when they are warm, but folks will continue to eat them when they have cooled to room temp. When I went looking for a link to the phyllo cups I use, I found they had a bunch of recipes online. You might be able to adapt some of these, if you didn't want to use phyllo cups. Link below. Let us know what you try and how it turns out! I might get more mileage out of my mini-muffin tins. Here is a link that might be useful: Phyllo cup recipes...See MoreJasdip
