I've always cooked it uncovered for 10 minutes. I put the lid on when it comes out, during cooling time. Also, my director instructed us to let it cool 30-45 minutes because she's actually had someone burn themself because they get SO hot. That's just in my experience.
You can use any combination of cake mix & icing. We did pink-on-pink during HWC. I usually just do chocolate cake with chocolate icing as it appeals to the masses...and I usually end up selling at least 1 or 2 Rice Cookers that way!

I always cook it w/ the cover on, one side latched. 10 minutes is usually enough, but I have been known to flip it over, and discover it was not cooked, then flip it back in and cook for another minute or so (very messy, do over a sink). If it sits for too long, the frosting gets absorbed, and is not as oozy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a rice cooker cake, and how does it differ from traditional baking?
A rice cooker cake is a dessert made using a rice cooker instead of a conventional oven. The main difference lies in the cooking method; rice cookers use steam and moisture to cook, resulting in a moist texture. This method can yield cakes that are denser and more pudding-like compared to those baked in an oven.
Can I use any cake recipe in a rice cooker?
While many cake recipes can be adapted for a rice cooker, it's essential to consider the cooking time and moisture content. Recipes that are too light or airy may not set properly. It's best to start with recipes specifically designed for rice cookers or those that are denser, like pound cakes or chocolate cakes.
How long does it take to cook a cake in a rice cooker?
The cooking time for a cake in a rice cooker typically ranges from 40 to 60 minutes, depending on the recipe and the specific rice cooker model. It's important to check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
What are some popular ingredients to use in rice cooker cakes?
Common ingredients for rice cooker cakes include flour, sugar, eggs, baking powder, and various flavorings like vanilla or cocoa powder. You can also add fruits, nuts, or chocolate chips for added flavor and texture. Experimenting with different ingredients can lead to unique and delicious results!
Where can I find rice cooker cake recipes?
You can find rice cooker cake recipes in various places, including cookbooks focused on rice cooker meals, food blogs, and recipe websites. Additionally, social media platforms like Pinterest and Instagram often feature creative rice cooker cake ideas shared by home cooks.
