Pizza "cupcakes" For Kids

[Grace'smom]

Hi all,

I experimented today after watching an espisode of "DC Cupcakes" this week, where the bakers made a cupcake pan version of mini biscuit pizzas. This recipe is a sweet twist on pizza; shaped like a traditional cupcake it calls for Gluten Free Bisquick's shortcake recipe as its base. Here's how I made them:

Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Use a non-stick baking spray on a dozen-sized cupcake pan.

In lg bowl, mix 2 cups of Gluten Free Bisquick dry mix with 1/4 cup sugar.

Fold in 1/3 cup softened butter, using a fork to break it up.

Add in 3/4 cup milk or fat free half/half

Stir in 3 beaten eggs

Add 1/2 tsp vanilla

Mix well.

Fill a dozen cupcake wells up 3/4 way with batter. Bake 10 mins. Remove from oven. Top each cupcake biscuit with 2 TBSP pf your favorite gluten-free pizza sauce. (I used Classico's Three Cheese tomato sauce). Sprinkle generously with shredded mozarella and cheddar. Return to oven for 5-6 minutes.

Cool 5 mins. Each "pizza cupcake" slides out easily with a lg. spoon. My kids ate 'em and loved 'em, even those who don't need to eat gluten free thought they were delicious. Enjoy!! - Emily

This does sound good. Unfortunately my kids don't like biscuits. Maybe they will like this since it is the shortcake recipe. It would be a great thing make ahead and freeze for a quick snack. If they don't eat them, mom sure will!
