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

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





FROSTING:

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.

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.

    My grandmother ';threw'; some stuff together many years ago giving this easy cake the family name ';Throw-Together.'; So easy my teenage son bakes it!!





    2 cups sugar, 2 cups flour, 1 tsp vanilla, 3 eggs, 1 cup milk, 3/4 cup oil. Mix all ingredients together. Pour into greased and floured cake pan and bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 mins. Sometimes takes a little longer too cook; but my oven doesn't cook as hot as Memaw's does.





    My family likes the gooey, stick outside of the cake, so our favorite pan is a bundt pan. This is awesome alone - but if you must, you can top with cool whip and strawberries. Hope you enjoy as much as my family does!!

    This is my recipe for Trinidadian rum cake - alson known as black cake or Christmas cake... It's really strong and is an acquired taste .. I think it's worth the effort.

    1 pound prunes


    1 pound dried figs


    1 (16 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained


    1/2 pound mixed peel


    1/4 pound almonds, chopped


    1 tablespoon angostura bitters


    2 1/2 cups dark Jamaica rum





    Caramelizing Sugar





    3/4 pound brown sugar


    1/2 cup boiling water





    Final Cooking


    2 teaspoons grated lime peel


    2 teaspoons vanilla


    4 cups flour


    4 teaspoons baking powder


    1 teaspoon ground cloves


    1 pound butter (4 sticks) softened


    2 1/4 cups sugar


    9 large eggs





    METHOD


    Equipment: Two 9x5x3 inch loaf pans or 1 10 inch tube pan.





    Prep Day





    Chop currants, raisins, prunes, figs and cherries. Put in large bowl with mixed peel and almonds. Stir to combine. Sprinkle on bitters and pour rum over mixture. Soak for a minimum of 24 hours, extending to one month. (Dream about this cake for whatever period of time you have chosen.)





    Caramelizing Sugar





    Put brown sugar in heavy pot. Stir, letting sugar liquefy. Cook over low heat until dark, stirring constantly, so sugar does not burn. When almost burnt, remove from heat and stir in hot water gradually. Mix well, let cool, and pour into container for use in final cooking.





    Final Cooking





    Preheat oven to 250掳F.





    Bring fruit from its resting place. Stir lime peel, vanilla and caramelized sugar into fruit. Mix well. Set aside.

    Pour into tins lined with buttered parchment paper or waxed paper. Place pan (or pans) in large shallow pan of hot water. Cook in preheated 250掳F oven for 2 1/2 - 3 hours or until a tester inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Cake should have shrunk from sides of pan.





    Cool for 24 hours in pans. When cool, moisten with rum, remove from tins, and wrap in aluminum foil or a rum drenched cloth. Cakes may be stored for a period of time. If keeping for any length of time, check occasionally to add more rum.

    Cover it in plastic wrap and you can serve in in the next 24 hours or so. ENJOY%26gt;Easy cake recipes?

    I am not so brilliant at making cakes, but there is an easy recipe for apple cake (versunkener apple cake) on the site below.


    I have made it loads of times and it is dead easy, you can't fail.
    This is so easy and so good....not to mention convenient.





    Take a cake mix....any flavor. Buy the corresponding flavor of instant pudding.


    Make the cake mix as directed except add one box of pudding and an EXTRA egg. Bake as directed.





    For the frosting, use one package of INSTANT pudding beat with 1 envelope Dream Whip, and one and a half cups of cold milk. When cake is cool, whip this up and throw it on top of the cake. It is SOOOOOO good. EVeryone will think you slaved.





    A great combo is vanilla cake and pudding, same for frosting and then cut strawberries in half to put all over the top edge.





    Double chocolate is great, too.





    Pistachio pudding with yellow cake is awesome.





    So many good combos.





    Good luck!
