Recipes: Crater Cake

Let's enjoy cooking !!

Ingredients:

Batter:

3/4 cup milk

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup sugar

2 cups Bisquick  

Topping:

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

1/2 cup brown sugar

8 marshmallows, each cut in half

Method:

Grease and flour a 9-by-9-inch pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine first three wet ingredients in a medium mixing bowl, then add sugar and Bisquick, mixing until smooth and no lumps are visible. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

Combine nuts and brown sugar in a small mixing bowl, then sprinkle evenly over batter. Place marshmallow halves on top, evenly spaced in four rows of four.

Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.

Note: Greasing a knife with butter makes it easier to cut the marshmallows in half. Betty Peters uses Crisco to grease the baking pan. The cake will also work in an 8-by-8-inch pan, too, but “watch your baking to make sure you don’t over-bake it,”.
