    That's funny. I was going to respond OMG! And then I looked and saw the last posty had beat me to it. But OMG anyway. And thanks for sharing! I just got a nifty little pan at Williams Sonoma that has little rounded out wells to allow you to make little round, filled pancakes. I'm totally into that right now, so this recipe is right down my ally. Again, thanks!

    I get a lot from Taste of Home!
    :heart: them!

    I thought this was a fun recipe. I am going to use it in my Child Development class when we are learning things to do with kids.

    OH! One thing, they use a traditional waffle iron, not a Belgium waffle iron.

    If you're lazy like I am, you can do the same thing with a boxed cake mix. Just mix it up according to the box, and drop spoonfulls onto the waffle iron. Frost your fun mini-cakes, dust with powdered sugar, or eat them plain! (Divide nutrition info on the box by the number of cakes you make)
