Mini-Cakes for a Buffet

Some time ago I bought some small silicone-molds in Søstrene Grene, and now was the time to use them. I made chocolate cakes and walnut pies. The recipe for walnut pies is already on the blog, only they were the bigger size, The small ones should be baked only once. You put some dough in the mold and then the filling. I baked at 200 degrees for 12 minutes - ( 6 minutes with the fan on, and 6 minutes  with the fan and lower heat on).

This is the result. The cakes are on a place mat made of English millennium stamps. They are glued on an A3 sized paper and then laminated.

And  now a recipe for the chocolate cakes:

Mini-chocolade cakes 36 PCS
100  g dark chocolate	Melt the butter at low heat in a saucepan and put the chocolate in the saucepan as well and let it melt. Mix and whip sugar and eggs in a bowl until it ribbons. Add flour, baking powder, coffee and spices as well as the melted butter/chocolate, Stir thoroughly. When filling the little molds it is easiest to pour the dough in a plastic bag, tie the end and cut a little hole in one of the lower corners, and then fill the mold by squeezing a bit out of the bag and into the mold, Only fill ⅔ of the mold as the cakes will rise. Put ½ walnut in each mold and push it down in the dough with the tip of a knife until it is covered with the dough. Bake at 200 degrees for 11 minutes.
100 g butter
1½ Dl sugar
2 eggs
1 Dl flour
½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp vanillasugar
3 tsp instant coffee dissolved in 2 tbsp boiling water
walnuts

I should have bought more than 12 molds. It took quite a while to bake all the cakes! 😥
