I’ve had so much fun trying out various Nordic Ware products this year.
Their Frozen Snowflake Pan is hands down the cutest thing I have in my cupboard! The first thing I thought was how perfect these Wintery Snowflake Cakelets would be for a holiday party with kids. Individual cakes, no cutting required!
I always hold my breath when turning a cake like this out but just like every Nordic Ware product, there was nothing to worry about. The non stick coating easily releases the little cakelets and there was nothing left behind to clean off later. With a lifetime warranty this pan would make a great addition to any bakers collection!
I usually like to try the recipe that comes with the pan but I found myself without cinnamon and ginger so I added 1/4 cup of mini chocolate chips instead. Once again, chocolate comes to the rescue!
To keep it really easy, I dusted the top with powdered sugar and glittery blue sugar.
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup packed powdered sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and coat the pan with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl combine the oil and both sugars. Add the eggs, vanilla and milk. Whisk together. Add the flour, baking soda and salt. Stir until incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Fill the pan evenly and bake for 20 minutes.

How pretty these little cakes look! I’m generally not one for specialty shaped pans, but I could definitely see myself using these.

You know, I was the same until I discovered Nordic Ware. They’re so cute, I have a hard time controlling myself on their website 🙂

These cakelets look gorgeous, so cute! I love your choice of blue sugar, it looks beautiful and perfectly reinforces the winter feel of the photos.

I think you mean the last ingredient to be chocolate chips not additional milk. They are delicous. I doubled the batch and used two Nordicware pans but the recipe made enough for three pans or 18 cakes
