I have used 3 sets of these for many years and wish I had more. Although the newer designs are like 1 board with 3 different "waves" in it...this older model with its design is much...
I always have some of the White in my pantry for those days when the grandkids are over and want to make something. I have many of the other colors...but sometimes the kiddos want to make their...

Custom Cupcake Wrappers are an easy way to add a special touch to a party. I like to use them for baby showers because I can put the name of the family on the wrapper. And no...
I live in MO in the summer and TX in the winter. Both of my kitchens have the pro mixer. I absolutely love both of my pro Kitchen Aids. Very sturdy and wonderful for breadmking. I still wish that...
Has anybody posted these in the recipes? I can't find them if they have, and they should if they haven't! (I wonder how many AMAZING recipes are hiding in the billion pages of forums?)
I would rather make 1 cake for $150, than 3 for $50 each.
The person who works for nothing will always have plenty to do!
My sarcasm is good-humored. People generally really like me, in person ;-)
I just came across this thread and am so glad I did! I can get Bettercreme only sporadically, but like many others, I'd prefer to have a recipe I can make up on my own. Can't wait to try it!

I'll have to try these. The last time I made that whoppie pie filling that called for flour and I DID NOT like the taste...so I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this one!
I smile because I don't know what the hell is going on.
Hmm, not sure just an eggless cookie dough filling recipe that I found I think here on CC. Just wanted the filling to have a "lighter" feel to it. Didn't get a reply so am trying it this afternoon on my own!
Will let you know how it goes!
Just what I wanted!!!
I added the mock bettercreme to the cookie dough filling and beat the tar out of it and it is almost mousse(y), thats a word right...lol! Anyhow it did lighten it up quite a bit and instead of adding the vanilla I used maple flavour and it is going to fill a chocolate chip cake. Still tastes like cookie dough just not so heavy.

I haven't piped any of it but it is what I would call a medium cosistency and if you wanted it thicker either don't add all of the mock bettercreme to the cookie dough filling or perhaps you could add more icing sugar to thicken it. Just my opinion.
Has anyone tried the pudding recipe? I'm just curious if the pudding fully dissolves. I have made a similar recipe for red velvet cake. We just called this boiled frosting but it was pretty soft. I used it on the shamrock cake in my pics.
I am looking forward to trying this one and hoping the pudding might give it a little more stability as well.
I can get bettercream but it's expensive and to me still has a slight chemical taste unless I really flavor it so this may be a good alternative.
Here is a recipe from cc, it is called bakers butter cream. I have made this before and it is like a whipped cream texture and taste. I don't freeze it as it states in the recipe, I just frost the cake. I have also sub the sugar for splenda sugar for a diabetic frosting. Pulse regular sugar in food processor if you don't have superfine sugar. http://www.cakecentral.com/cake_recipe-2114-18-Bakers-Butter-Cream.html
I too do not have access to bettercream in my area and am planning on trying the recipes listed on here. I know the quote/link about is going back a few years now, but the link no longer works. I read that the name of the recipe is "bakers buttercream" and I have tried to search it, but nothing. Just wondering if you all are using the recipes listed or something else from CC's collection. I can't wait to try this---
