I was so excited to find some recipes for Easy Bake Oven Mixes today. Emalee is still too young for an Easy Bake Oven, but I know that there may come a day that she might request that for her birthday or Christmas present. That's why I decided to post this recipe in my blog today...for my own future reference.
As a little girl I always loved baking with my mom. One of my fondest memories is baking pies with her. She would always save just enough crust and filling so that I could bake my own pie too. I'd put it in the little foil pot pie container and it was the perfect size to eat!
My sister's had a Holly Hobby oven and would bake cakes in it. If you've ever priced the Easy Bake Oven Mixes you know that they're kind of pricey for what they are. So here's a great frugal recipe for them. Enjoy!
