Great Chocolate Cake Recipe in 12" Skillet?

[stefani2]

I would love to have the option of having a Chocolate cake made in my 12" Executive Skillet. I made the Turtle Fudge Skillet cake and it was delicious but a bit crumbly. Any suggestions on what to do with THIS recipe? OR is there other AMAZING Skillet Cake recipes?

Crumbly sounds like not enough liquid or cooked too long.

Molten Chocolate Skillet Brownie
The Pampered Chef ®
2005 F/W Season’s Best Page 24


1 package (19-21 oz) fudge brownie mix (plus ingredients to make cake-like brownies)
1 bar (4 oz) fine-quality bittersweet chocolate
2 cups water
1 jar (12 oz) chocolate fudge ice cream topping
1/2 teaspoon Pantry Double Strength Vanilla
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped
Powdered sugar
Vanilla ice cream or thawed, frozen whipped topping (optional)


Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray bottom of Family (12-in.) Skillet with nonstick cooking spray. In Classic Batter Bowl, prepare brownie mix according to package directions for cake-like brownies. Spread batter over bottom of skillet. Cut chocolate into small pieces using Crinkle Cutter. Sprinkle chocolate evenly over batter.

Combine water and ice cream topping in Large Micro-Cooker®; whisk until well blended using Stainless Whisk. Microwave, covered, on HIGH 5-6 minutes or until mixture comes to a full boil. Whisk until blended; stir in vanilla. (Mixture will be thin.) Carefully pour ice cream topping mixture over brownie batter in a circular pattern.

Bake, uncovered, 35-40 minutes or until sauce is bubbling around edges. (Top of brownie will appear very saucy, but will thicken as it cools.) Using Silicone Oven Mitt, carefully remove skillet from oven to Stackable Cooling Rack.

Coarsely chop almonds using Food Chopper; sprinkle evenly over brownie. Lightly sprinkle with powdered sugar using Flour/Sugar Shaker. Spoon brownie into Simple Additions® Small Bowls using Nylon Spoon and serve warm with ice cream or whipped topping, if desired.

Cook's Tip: To toast almonds in the microwave oven, place almonds in Small Oval Baker; microwave on HIGH 5-7 minutes or until golden brown, stirring after each 30-second interval. Cool completely.

If desired, 1 teaspoon vanilla can be substituted for the Double Strength Vanilla.

If desired, 4 squares (1 oz each) bittersweet baking chocolate or 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels can be substituted for the bittersweet chocolate bar.

If you go online to the use and care page of the skillet, and click on recipes, it gives several for that pan. Check out the German Cho cake, and the Pinapple upside down cake!
