Rum Bubble Surprise

Step 5 Cake Time!

Bake the cake. The box cake I used yielded me two 8" cakes.

Pop out small circular sections of cake using a 2" cookie cutter or old tomato paste can. The cake needs to fit in your mouth in one bite, so don't go overboard.

Cut the sections of cake in half, and leave them on a cookie rack to rest while you prepare the meringue. Extra sections can be frozen.

I suggest eating the extra cake. You know, so you can be sure it's good.

Why not just use cupcake pans and only put a little bit of batter in the bottom of each. They'll cook super fast, you won't have much waste and you won't need to go through the extra effort of cutting them all out! You could even use the paper cupcake liners all just lined up on a cookie sheet. No pans to clean!

That's a great idea! Man, that's going to be a huge timesaver.

My way seems sort of stupid now. :)

If you're looking for a particular size, your way definitely works. I've done it myself quite a number of times!
