The set-up.
The little monsters.
The left-over batter in cake form.
AK tested. AK approved.
As always, some tips to optimize the recipe:
- You can always sub bourbon for vanilla in baking- they taste very similar in the finished product.
- This time, we put the frosting in the fridge for an hour or two before frosting, and it worked perfectly.
- Cooling the cakes overnight provides less chance for residual heat to melt the frosting.
- If you don't have a piping bag, use a Ziploc and cut open one end to make your own.
- There's a caramel sauce that's supposed to fill these, but ours hardened up too much. Be very careful when making the filling.
These were divine. 10/10 would recommend.
