You only get one birthday every year.
That’s why unbirthdays were invented!
364 days to celebrate the days on which you weren’t born: with presents and balloons, with parties and candles, and of course with chocolate.
March Hare: A very merry unbirthday.
Alice: To me?
Mad Hatter: To you!
March Hare: A very merry unbirthday.
Alice: For me?
Mad Hatter: For you! Now blow the candle out, my dear and make your wish come true!
March Hare & Mad hatter: A very merry unbirthday to you!
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…
LINK OF THE DAY:
Deep Dish Cinnamon Roll Pie (flourless, gf, vegan options)
Would it be possible to add a “printer friendly” link to your recipes?
I agree!!! That would be REALLY helpful 🙂
My mother, bless her soul, can never read any of your recipes when I scribble it down. On the plus side, when people see my handwriting, they think I’m so smart because what to ME is script is Greek to them (literally!). Who am I to tell them otherwise?
Currently the only thing you can do is highlight the recipe portion of the post and press “control c” then open a Word document and paste (control v).
I can’t install the print plugin at the moment due to a corrupt file. Sorry for the trouble!

Your so damn cute with your sprinkles haha
These look incredible ( as always) .
Can’t wait to sink my teeth into one 🙂
These look amazing, and I want to make them immediately! So do my children. Is there a way to make them sans microwave? We don’t use or have a microwave.
Thanks so much
Leave out the cake crumbles? Or use any cake crumbles (in other words, make whatever cake you want and use those crumbles instead). 🙂
Such a cute idea! Love the pictures 🙂 Thanks for another batch of eye candy Katie!
Check out my latest recipe, review & giveaway @ Baking Blissful
oh my gosh those are AWESOME!!! i am totally going to make these this week! They’re so cute too!
These look amazing katie!!!! I made a chocolate cake last night which completely crumbled as I took it out the tin 🙁 I didn’t want to waste it, so froze the crumbs for cake pops. But maybe I’ll use them in these instead! And I like the dormouse best. Mice are cute 🙂

I love your way of thinking! Those are the prettiest Reeses I’ve ever seen…..I love the sprinkles!
The Movie? You have to read the book! It’s one of my all-time favorites! And there’s so much behind what seems to be a simple story for children!
One of my favorite quotes:
“Take some more tea,’ the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
‘I’ve had nothing yet,’ Alice replied in an offended tone, ‘so I can’t take more.’
‘You mean you can’t take LESS,’ said the Hatter: ‘it’s very easy to take MORE than nothing.'”
my fav charachters are the Tweedle-Twins, from the book (never watched the movie – and books are always better).
Never would have thought of combining b-day cake and Reeses cups, but looks good!
Thursday will be 4 months since I turned 21, I think I need to make these to celebrate =)
