2 Wilton Mini Ball Pans
\n1\/2 Duncan Hines Yellow cake mix, 1\/4 cup butter, 2 eggs, 1\/3 cup milk
\nred liquid food coloring
\nyellow liquid food coloring
\n3\/4 cup granulated sugar, divided
\n1 cinnamon stick
\n6-12 fresh peppermint leaves
\n12 whole almonds
\nOne batch Buttercream Frosting<\/p>\n

Ice cream or sorbet, optional
\nRaspberry sauce, optional<\/p>\n

How to Make and Assemble:<\/p>\n

You will only need 1\/2 of a Duncan Hines yellow cake mix to make 6 Peach Cakes. Mix according to package directions- 1\/2 cake mix with 1\/4 cup softened butter, 2 eggs, 1\/3 cup milk, and 12 drops yellow food coloring. Divide evenly among the 12 greased mini rounds- about +1\/4 cup batter. Bake in 350 degree oven for 8-10 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool 2 minutes in pan then remove to wire rack. If you have one pan this can be done in two shifts!<\/p>\n

While cakes are baking make the buttercream frosting and add about 12 drops of yellow food coloring to get a bright yellow. Set aside.<\/p>\n

In two separate lidded containers, add 1\/2 cup sugar and 12 drops yellow food coloring to one and 1\/4 cup sugar and 6 drops red food coloring to the other. Cover each container and shake vigorously until the coloring is fully incorporated. Let the children do this! If there is clumping, break up with a fork and continue shaking. You should have a lovely bright yellow and a nice deep pink. You will have leftovers.<\/p>\n

\"sugars\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Break the cinnamon stick into small stems by taking a pair of scissors and placing the point into the hollow center of the stick and cutting. You will get both big and small bits, use the prettier pieces.<\/p>\n

Frost the flat side of six mini rounds, being sure to get the frosting very think along one edge. Place another mini round on the frosting and press together forming a peach. Run your finger or a small spoon along the frosting to make an indentation that mimics the crease on a peach.<\/p>\n

Dip each \u00e2\u20ac\u0153cheek\u00e2\u20ac\u009d of the peach into the pink sugar. I am calling each \u00e2\u20ac\u0153fleshy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d side of the thick portion of frosting the cheek. Then roll the rest of the peach in the yellow sugar without covering the pink portion. Roll the frosting portion in the yellow sugar as well.\u00c2\u00a0 At the top of each peach, place a piece of cinnamon stick and a peppermint leaf. Arrange in a pretty bowl or on a platter. Decorate with more mint sprigs if desired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
