Yummy snack food!!!
I finally came up with a good "homemade" snack for my son (5, PDD). For those of you in the east, these are sort of a pseudo-tasty cake candy cake. The chocolate coating sort of distracts you from the texture of the pound cake, which like most gfcf baked stuff, is somewhat dry. This recipe was a big hit with my son! Ingredients: Miss Roben's Pound Cake mix, plus necessary ingredients Peanut butter as much as you like GFCF Chocolate any kind that can be melted, including choc chips if available... Prepare Pound cake as directed. Cool completely. Slice in thin (approx 1/4 inch) slices; cut each slice into smaller rectangles. (I cut each slice into 3 pieces) Spread peanut butter on one side of each slice. Melt chocolate in double boiler (you can add a little gfcf shortening to make it a little thinner if necessary). Set a slice on a fork and lower it into the melted chocolate to coat it completely (like if you were trying to make choc covered pretzels). Place on wax paper until chocolate hardens. Wrap individually in plastic wrap, and keep in refrigerator. Eating them cold keeps the chocolate coating hard, and lends a bit of a crunch when you bite into it. Enjoy! Colleen
