If people will post at least 10 recipes for using our torte set I'll create a booklet for the torte pans. I don't have the pans and have no recipes for them but I know someone is looking for a booklet for them so share your favorite recipes and any hints/tips you have.
 
I posted some from the old flan pans that would probably work. It was a couple of months ago.
 
Here they are...I took a look in my old stuff, and I don't have a booklet of ideas (which is what I thought I had), but I did find some recipes that use the old flan pan set. The torte pan set is very similar, but the wells hold 2 cups EACH - the flan set held 2 cups total.PUDDING FILLING

1 package (4 serving size) instant pudding and pie filling
1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawedSprinkle pudding over milk in Small Batter Bowl and whisk until pudding starts to thicken. Fold in whipped topping. Spread in “well” of Flan Cake. Top with pie filling or fresh fruit.
Makes 2 cups, enough for 2 Flan Cakes.CREAM CHEESE FILLING
