  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Directions
  1. Combine all dry ingredients, and mix well

  4. Preheat oven to 350*F
  5. Oil or butter the mini-pans
  6. Fill each mini-pan a little over half full to allow for even expansion
  7. Place filled pans on a cookie sheet.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow cakes to cool completely in their pans, then invert and decorate however your fancy takes you!
