Have You Tried the Molten Chocolate Skillet Brownie in the Deep Dish Baker?

Has anyone tried the molten Chocolate Skillet Brownie in the Deep Dish Baker? I'd like to make this recipe at an upcoming Show but would like to demonstrate the Stoneware. Thanks!

I just did a cake for my daughter's b-day in the deep-dish baker. It turned out really well! I buttered the bottom and sides of the baker and nothing stuck. The cake puffed up in the center, so I flipped it upside down on the plate and you couldn't tell. It looked like a supersize single layer cake.

I modified the mocha cappuccino cake quite a bit, but it kind of looked like that. It was a cherry-chip cake, the filling was creamcheese w/whipped topping and cherry jello for flavour and color, with a sprinkling of grated white chocolate. I brushed the top, and the top of the bottom layer with a hot water/cherry jello mixture (by the way I sliced the cake in half). Instead of piping rosettes on-top, I don't have an Easy Accent Decorator, I just spread more filling on the top and then covered with grated white chocolate.

It tasted yummy, my 4 year old loved it, and it looked like a designer cake!

I have modified several cakes because I don't have a skillet. I use the fluted pan and, now, the deep-dish baker. I just follow the cake mix directions as far as baking time. The fluted pan usually takes 45 mins, while the deep-dish baker took about 40 minutes.

If you are unsure, do a test cake in whichever stoneware piece you have, then remember the baking time and adjust your show accordingly.

I hope it turns out well.
