M&M cake recipes anyone?

i want to bake an m%26amp;m cake... the kind with the candies mixed into the batter b4 being baked.





I have a recipe for M%26amp;M squares using M%26amp;Ms n dessicated coconut. Its perfect xcept the recipe uses a flat baking dish n produces a 1inch thick cake. I need to bake a round 9inch cake which is at least 3inches thick. If i use the same recipe it would need a longer time in the oven wouldnt it? Pls help...M%26amp;M cake recipes anyone?
You are right, it may take a bit longer to bake. Just closely monitor it....Use the old toothpick trick.......Stick it in the middle of the cake and if it is clean when you pull it out, it is ready. (Of course unless you stick it in an m%26amp;m)





If the cake is firm to the touch means it may be ready, so does if the edges of the cake pull away from the pan a bit.





Don't worry, it'll turn out yummy!M%26amp;M cake recipes anyone?
I found a few recipes if you would like to try one of them:





Christmas M %26amp; M Cake or...Anytime Cake





CAKE:





1 cup butter -- softened


1 cup sugar


1/2 cup light brown sugar


3 eggs


1 cup milk


1 teaspoon vanilla


2 1/2 cups flour


2 teaspoons baking powder


1/8 teaspoon salt


1-16 oz. pkg. red and green M%26amp;M's (Any Color Will Do)





FROSTING:





1 cup powdered sugar


juice of 1 lemon


2 teaspoons water





1. Cream together butter and sugars until light. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.


2. Stir together milk and vanilla.


3. Mix together flour, baking powder, and salt. Alternately add flour and milk to creamed mixture.


4. Reserve 1/4 cup M%26amp;M's for topping. Stir remaining M%26amp;M's into batter. Pour into greased and floured 12-cup bundt or tube pan.


5. Bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes. Cool 15 minutes before removing from pan.


6. Mix together frosting ingredients to make glaze. Drizzle over top and decorate with reserved 1/4 cup M%26amp;M's.





NOTE: The chocolate from the M%26amp;M's melts and goes to the bottom of the pan (top when turned out of pan) and the red an green M%26amp;M's leave colorful trails throughout the cake.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake





2陆 cup all-purpose flour


陆 tsp baking soda


录 tsp salt


1 cup brown sugar


陆 cup sugar


1 cup butter, softened


2 lg eggs


2 tsp vanilla


1 bag semi sweet chocolate chips


1 bag m%26amp;m baking bits





Heat oven to 300掳 F





Mix flour, baking soda and salt together, set aside.





Mix sugars together in a large bowl. On medium speed, add butter just till well mixed. Add eggs and vanilla, mix till blended. On low speed add flour mixture. Fold in chocolate chips and m%26amp;m's.





Put all the batter on an ungresed pizza pan. Shape it how you like. I make it the shape of the pizza pan ( 2 inches from the rim, otherwise it will go over) Bake 20-25 minutes or untill done.





I make this with splenda sugar and splenda brown sugar and it tastes the same. I have also put it into a pie tin and just bake it a little longer.
