Product Information

Use a weighing scale– I highly recommend using a weighing scale and measuring out your ingredients the metric way. It makes a huge difference to your baking and is the most accurate way to bake! I get a lot of questions in my recipes about substitutions, so I thought I would provide a little list of swap-outs that might be helpful. Of course there are a million other ways you can modify this dessert, too! Read my article Instant Clearjel: a Magical Little-Known Bakery Ingredient to see why I think this ingredient is worth having in your pantry. Instant Clearjel must always be whisked thoroughly with other dry ingredients before being added to wet ingredients to avoid clumping. If you need to substitute, please use white chocolate or vanilla instant pudding mix in the cake batter as described within the recipe. In a city like Las Vegas, it’s really challenging to narrow down the best in categories as broad as desserts. There are a handful of Las Vegas desserts that have caught our attention but might be a little too over the top, even for the most devoted dessert fan. NOTE – It is critical for the chocolate to remain melted until the top & bottom are snapped together… this allows each side to harden together and form the skull. (If you find that you did not melt enough chocolate for all 8 cavities… you will NOT have time to heat up another batch…. simply remove the raspberry cubes from any unfilled skulls, snap the mold together to allow the filled skulls to harden, and repeat.

Step 1: In a large mixing bowl or a stand mixer, combine the flour with the cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt until smooth. Prep ahead - I really recommend making the strawberry filling at least a day ahead of time, this will make your life so much easier! You can make the strawberry filling up to a week in advance and the cake layers two days in advance. Brownies: brownies are baked in mini muffin tins so they’re cute and perfectly pop-able. (You could also make this with your favorite cupcake recipe or make them full-size, depending on the size of your brain candy mold.)To prepare the pan for the batter, make sure you spray AND flour the pan. This will ensure the skulls come out without any issue. The flour also creates a marbley, spooky effect when it gets into the crevices even without the glaze. A Moist, Rich Chocolate Cake The powdered sugar glaze gets into all of the intricate crevices of the mold (those teeth!), making the skulls have this eery old-and-dead feeling to them. The glaze could not be easier. You need three ingredients that are whisked together:

If you’re a fan of spooky sweets and creepy candies, then these so-gross-they’re-goodZombie Brain Brownie Bites are for you! These bite-sized fudgy brownie cups have a candy “brain” on top that hides a sweet green ganache that oozes when you bite into them. Green goo: it’s a simple mixture of heavy cream and candy melts, but “goo” is so much more fun to say!And if you love cakes with cake fillings, you've also got to try my amazing Blueberry Cake, Lemon Curd Cake, and my moist Vanilla Bean Cake with Raspberry Filling. 🍰 Cake Ingredients White Candy Melts: much cheaper and easier to use than real white chocolate. I used these white candy melts by Wilton. For now… Chocolate. Being that the color red is oh so popular these days…. I chose to fill my chocolate skulls with a homemade raspberry sauce. Besides, it is the natural color to be seeping from a skull cavity after all. I chose do make a combination of dark and white chocolate. The dark chocolate seemed fitting for Valentine’s Day, but man do I like the look of that red raspberry oozing out of the white skull! This cake tastes similar to a creamy strawberry shortcake. We used to call it "Strawberries 'n' Cream cake" at my bakery. Roll each dough into a ropeabout 10 inches long. Twist the two doughs together and roll the twisted dough into one rope.
