Gluten Free Ghost Petit Fours
I’ve been making this little puppies for a long time, but this year, I went Gluten Free with Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Vanilla Cake Mix!
I used to make it from scratch like Martha, but now that we are seriously Gluten Free, I just had to try out this mix and it worked great.
Here’s how you do it:
Step 1
Follow the directions of the package for making the cake, but instead of two round pans, use a jelly roll pan or a cookie sheet that has a nice lip on it like mine.
Grease the pan, cut out a sheet of parchment paper to fit the bottom, and then grease the paper on top. Can’t be too careful, yo.
Pour in the batter.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25 minutes. I started checking at 20 min to be sure I didn’t over cook it.
Not that I’ve been known to ever do that, ahem.
Let the cake cook completely. Like over cool it. Like don’t get excited and think it’s mostly cool and forge ahead.
You will regret it.
Again, not that I’ve ever been known to do that either, ahem-ahem.
Then turn it out gently on a rack and then flip back over on a cutting board.
Step 2
Use a round cutter {around a 2″ diameter} and cut cute little circles out of the cake.
Eat the scraps. Or save them and I’ll show you what I did with them.
Step 3
Using The Best Buttercream Icing Recipe Ever, Pipe a Pile ‘O Icing on top like so…
Then drizzle generously with some butter glaze.
Step 5
Melt a cup of chocolate chips.
Fill a zip-loc bag and cut the tip off one corner.
Pipe little eyes and mouths on the side of the ghosts.
My chocolate wasn’t very polite and kept drooping down. What nerve.
But they’re still super cute and taste freakin’ amazeballs.
