Recipe:
1-1/2 crumbs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 cup margarine, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup banana
3 tsp egg replacer with warm water (to make it all slimey, see colour note below)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup non-dairy melk (New Jersey spelling, here)
- Blend cracker crumbs, flour and baking powder in small bowl; set aside.
- Beat margarine and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer at high speed until light and fluffy. Add egg replacer & banana. Stir in vanilla.
- Alternately add flour mixture and milk, beating well after each addition. Divide batter into 2 well greased 8-inch round cake pans.
- Bake at 350°F for 25 minutes or until done. Cool in pans 15 minutes. Remove from pan; cool completely. Fill and frost as desired.
- Add your favourite frosting. We used vegan buttercream.
- The frosting has to be slime green.
First, we ground up the cookies in a food processor. It became graham cracker sugary baking mix.
Then we smashed up some more graham crackers more coarsely, combined with some Cinnamon Toast Crunch just for a mix-up.
Cream the sugar and margarine and whip in lots of air, to help maintain a cakes-y consistency.
Cheating, and using a banana!
Into the oven :( I hope they don't try to run out and escape. At this point, we cleaned a bunch of stuff compulsively. This was a bit difficult, as our alcohol still was still taking up the entire sink.
Makin' some slime frosting.
The proper way of making toast. And, the final cakes!
Mission? Accomplished.
was it yummy? and why must the frosting be slime green?
ReplyDeletethe frosting simply must be slime green! it MUST! i think i read that in a book, once.
ReplyDeleteHey, I made this cake and it was good! My friend sent me the recipe and asked me to make it for her birthday with marshmallow fluff between the layers and chocolate ganache (not slime green) for frosting. It turned out great. The cake layers were really thin, like an inch tall, so it was pretty flat like a graham cracker. There were slightly crunchy bits, which were tasty, because I crushed the crackers with a handheld potato masher and there were some big chunks. If I was going to make this more cake-like, I would double the recipe so the layers were thicker, but this worked well for a s'more cake. Oh yeah, and it only baked for 20 minutes.
ReplyDeleteI also made a half batch of it gluten-free (with gluten-free graham crackers) as cupcakes (for allergic people) and they were good. Half a batch made 8 cupcakes that baked for about 15 minutes.
Thanks for a great recipe! -Katie
