Tuesdays with Dorie: Swedish Visiting Cake

I didnt eat much of this, but Jaos did. He said it tasty like a sugar cookie. It didnt rise at all, which made it rather thin when I realized my skillet is 10 inches. Whoops!

It stuck a little to the pan. Double whoops! Check out the other skillet sugar cookies at the TWD blog. Thanks to Nancy for picking such an easy one to throw together!

    Haha, your cake still looks great! My cake was pretty thin even though I baked it in a 8″ pan. Nothing wrong with a skillet sugar cookie. :)

    I’m okay with a giant sugar cookie! I got a fat little cake by using a 6″ pan. Oh, and Pens vs Sens? Most agree the Pens are going to mop up the igloo with my team, but still friends, eh?

    What a great new name for this dish. It truly looks like a sugar cookie! I’ve yet to try the skillet method (of which I’m sure I will)! It was the best cake….er… cookie, don’t you think?

    mmmm! Skillet Sugar Cookie. :) We loved this, my husband especially!

    Mine didn’t stick to the cast iron at all and this cake/cookie was devoured here. It was good, but give me decadent chocolate cake with ganache instead, please. ;)

    Now you know I am TOTALLY down with the skillet sugar cookie but… Are you an almond hater?? You need the almonds chicka. They were such a yummy crunch to the crust. Trust me! Have I ever steered you wrong before? (Let’s not mention white chocolate anything mkay thanx bye.)

    Mine stuck too! But it tasted amazing!!

  10. Jeannette says:

    Mine was really thin too, guess we have the same sized pans!! :)

  11. Mine was a bit thicker but it still reminded me of an almond sugar cookie. I’m glad your hubs liked it. Yay for easy recipes, especially when life gets crazy, right? Thanks for baking along with me this week and THANKS for TWD!!!

  12. nice texture and perfect edges!

    I bet it was still delicious! I don’t even know what size my skillet is…

  14. Michelle says:

    Yipeee for Swedish cake..I loved it. The only thing I have had Swedish is the candy Swedish fish! Your cake looks so good!

  15. Susan says:

    I made mine in a 10″ skillet too, and while it was thin, it didn’t stick to the pan. Guess that was the half of stick of butter I used to grease the pan with. :) Yours still looks good.

    The bigger the cookie, the better…at least in my book!

  17. Jessica says:

    It’s kind of neat to think of this as a big sugar cookie. Just think of the possibilities! I’m glad that your hubs enjoyed this treat!

  18. Jessica says:

    How beautiful and simple…and come to think of it, it is like a big, squishy sugar cookie!

  19. Holly says:

    Yeah, mine kind of did this rise and sink type of thing in the middle when I made it. It tasted good though.

    Cookie or cake, I bet it was delicious! This is rather late, but I have to say I really love this recipe a lot! Quick and easy! I also had a larger skillet (11 3/4″ I think) and even though I had increased the portion by 1.5 times, it was still somewhat flat. So YAY to low-profile Swedish Visiting Cake!

    A giant sugar cookie sounds like my idea of winning the food lottery…
