Birthday Cake Batter Reeses
Ingredients
- For the cake layer:
- 2 tbsp coconut flour (or another flour) (19g)
- pinch salt (1/16 tsp)
- 1/8 tsp baking powder
- 4 tbsp water (use much less if using a flour other than coconut flour)
- For the filling:
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp cashew butter (or nut butter of choice)
- 2 tbsp milk of choice
- 1/2 packet stevia or 2 tsp powdered sugar (omit for a less-sweet result)
- optional: sprinkles
- For the chocolate coating:
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp cocoa powder (25g)
- 20-30 nunaturals vanilla drops or 2-3 tbsp pure maple syrup or agave
- 1/4 cup liquid virgin coconut oil (Or omit these first three ingredients and simply melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips instead.) (58g)
Instructions
Make the chocolate coating by stirring ingredients together. Spoon just a little of the chocolate into the bottoms of cupcake liners, mini cupcake liners, or candy molds. Then freeze 8-10 minutes. Meanwhile, combine all cake ingredients in a small bowl and microwave 2 minutes (or more or less, depending on your microwave’s wattage). With a fork, break cake into tiny crumbs. In a separate bowl, combine filling ingredients and stir well. If your nut butter is from the fridge, you may have to microwave a little so it’ll stir more easily. Take liners out of the freezer and top each with filling, then sprinkle on some cake crumbs. (You won’t use anywhere near all the cake crumbs, but I thought this was easier than giving ingredient amounts of 1/64 tsp!) Cover with the rest of the chocolate, and freeze until solid.
Who’s your favorite Alice in Wonderland character?
Everyone seems to love the Cheshire Cat, but my favorite was always the White Rabbit. I also liked the singing flowers and the horn that looked like a platypus. Actually, I don’t remember much else about the movie; it’s been years since I last saw Alice in Wonderland. Now that the Olympics are over, I might have to force my roommate to watch it with me…

Ahhh now I want to watch Alice in Wonderland! I love Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum!
Yum!
What an adorable recipe!
However, as an anglophile and literature enthusiast, I was a wee bit put out by a quotation from the film adaptation and not from the novel! For shame Katie!
I suppose for all your ingenius chocolatiering I will forgive you.
Of course I’m just being a pest, who doesn’t love Disney’s Alice in Wonderland?
I personally love the scene were Alice comes upon the cards hastily painting the roses red!
Well, thank you Katie, for this wonderful recipe that I will have to try. And guess what? It actually IS my birthday today! So this was a fun surprise to see. Looks delicious, as always. Just made your Secret Peanut Butter Cookies yesterday and they were so yummy. My whole family loved them. Have a great day!
Aw happy birthday!
Hey Katie! I’ve been following your blog for awhile and i’m so glad i stumbled across it! I’m going to major in nutrition to be a dietician so eating healthy is very important to me. And now thanks to YOU i can eat healthy & YUMMY foods at the same time. This recipe looks great! And my favorite Alice in Wonderland character would have to be the Mad Hatter, hands down. Thanks Katie!
Mad Hatter & Alice have always been my favorites! When sci-fi did an alice series I loved it because in the end Alice & the Mad Hatter got together! haha 😉 I am such a cheesey girl.
Oh well. I did have one question, does this actually yield 12 cups like it shows in the picture?
Depends on the size of your liners/candy molds. I got 12 mini reeses (the size of the ones in the photos).
If you mix all the cake layer with all of the filling I’d imagine you’d have something like a healthy cake pop! (minus the pop part)
So trying!! Thank you!
Just when I think you’ve amazed me the most you possibly could, you pull out something like this and amaze me even more.
Those look unbelievably delicious!!
My favorite character in Alice in Wonderland is definitely the Mad Hatter! So ridiculous & out there! & it doesn’t hurt that Johnny Depp played him 😉
Cute!!!
And I think my favorite (in the newer movie) is probably the Mad Hatter.
Oh Johnny Depp…
