Piña Colada Cake Bites Recipes

PIñA COLADA CAKE BITES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F.
• Spray your cakelet or cake bite pan wells with baking spray (not cooking spray) and use a pastry brush to make sure they have a thorough coating.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients. It is best if they are at room temperature. You may need to warm the oil in the microwave.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
• Spoon the batter into the cake bite wells and bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until they pass the "toothpick test". For larger cakelets or a loaf pan, it may take 45 minutes to be done.
• For the glaze, combine both ingredients in a small saucepan over medium low heat and allow to simmer for a couple of minutes.
• Allow the cakes to cool in the pan for at least 5 minutes on a wire rack before attempting to remove them from their wells. These are soft cakes so they may come apart if they are still too warm. The edge of a silicone spatula may help to lift them out.
• Use a pastry brush to gently glaze the top of each bite and allow them to dry on a wire rack for at least an hour.
