TWD - Chocolate Gingerbread!

Gingerbread is not one of my favorite sweets -- but chocolate is! The result is that this week's TWD recipe is one that I would make again. The exact recipe can be found at Sherry Triffle, the blog of Heather who selected the challenge.


I changed the recipe slightly by baking it in smaller pans. I baked it in two 3 inch springform pans and 12 normal sized cupcakes. Following Dorie's note, I filled the pans about 2/3 full which worked out really well. Also, I cut the baking time to about 30 minutes.

  2. What a great idea. Yes, I think I may try the gingerbread again and used the correct amount of butter. I am such a goof! Your mini's look really fun and special for a special one.

  4. Very cute! I did two small heart shaped spring-form with the extra batter from the 8x8 (instead of 9x9). The 2/3 fill worked perfectly on all of them, and the smaller ones were cuter and more appealing. I was surprised by the combo too, but everyone in my house including young ones loved them.
