DO GOOD with Baked Goods
By Stephanie | June 22, 2009
Today, my 2-year-old and I made miniature chocolate chip muffins (while my 3-month-old watched from her bouncy seat and/or from her perch in my arms).
We poured and we measured and we made a mess of flour and sugar and vanilla. We may have stolen a few chocolate chips from the golden-tipped bag.
Of course, we sampled a few after we pulled them out of the oven {for the record: they were really good}.
Tomorrow, we’ll likely divide them into pretty little packages, tie them with ribbon, and deliver them to a few neighbors.
It was a fun activity to do together. And it will undoubtedly bring joy to the recipients.
Homemade baked goods have a way of creating harmony and happiness and hearts full of gratitude.
If you ever want to spread a little cheer, bake up a loaf of warm bread, a 1/2 dozen blueberry muffins, a scrumptious apple crisp, a plate of crumbly cookies, or a rich New York cheesecake – and give it away.
When you do, consider shopping at Pampered Chef for your bakeware needs.
I recently had an opportunity to try Pampered Chef’s SpringForm Pan ($25.50) and it is fabulous! It’s sleek and stylish looking so it makes an excellent kitchen accessory, but it also creates beautiful cheesecakes and cakes. If you love cheesecake, you’ll love this pan. In fact, now that I have it, I can’t imagine making cheesecake without it.
I used the Deluxe Mini-Muffin Pan ($16) for the recipe above. It’s sturdy and semi-glossy…and aren’t bite size muffins just way more fun than the “regular” variety? Kids love ‘em too. As my daughter explained happily, “they’re kid-sized muffins!” Let me tell you the best part of this pan: you know when you have to “scoop” the muffins out of the pan and a bunch of cake gets left in the tray (making it impossible to clean and making your muffins oddly shaped…)? That totally DIDN’T happen with this pan! I just sprayed the pan with a little cooking spray and the muffins popped out perfectly, effortlessly.
YOUR TURN: Do you bake with your kids? Do you ever bake for other people? Have you shopped at Pampered Chef and, if so, what has been your experience with the products?
WIN IT! One winner will receive a SpringForm Pan ($25.50) and Deluxe Mini-Muffin Pan ($16) from Pampered Chef. To enter, leave any topic-related comment on this post prior to Tuesday, June 30 at midnight (Don’t forget to follow the rules…all generic comments like “Enter me!,” “Love it,” and “Cool stuff!” will be disqualified.).
*UPDATE* The winner is #185 Jennifer M. Congratulations!

My sons think that baking and cooking are for girls. lol. But am sure one day this perception will change. Baking is a wonderful bonding time with your daughter. :)

My 3 yr. old son loves to help mommy bake and cook. He’s always so proud to tell everyone that he helped when they’re trying the finished product. And I do love pampered chef products – they’re good quality and their recipes are super easy and delicious too!

I love to bake with my kids. My youngest daughter is especially interested in baking and asks me to bake some goodies all of the time. I’ve never tried Pampered Chef so thanks for the offer!

Your little helper is precious! Roo and I baked chocolate cookies yesterday. She loves to help in the kitchen and would do more if I let her. Grandma taught her to crack eggs so she is very excited about doing that– I probably would have avoided that for a while longer due to the raw egg/salmonella factor. Now I just have to keep her from licking the spoon and the bowl… easier said than done!

i love baking… more so in the winter, but I love it nonetheless. When we were in a cloer community of people, we always baked for others. We brought muffins to my friend who just gave birth, banana bread to small group, etc. I miss it during the summer months, but it’s just so hot that I don’t get around to it as much.

I LOVE pampered chef products. For baking I use the stoneware bread dish. I bake pumpkin bread red velvet cake quite often. Pumpkin bread is my husband’s favorite treat! I would love to use my recipes for muffins! Maybe try my hand at baking a cheese cake in the springform pan. Thanks.

I love baking and I love pampered chef! I have some of their products, but not those two. They would be a great addition to my kitchen. I actually bake for the counselors at camp every summer to give them a little pick me up in the middle of summer and they love it. I bake for like 6 hours and they eat it in like 5 minutes :)

I went to one pampered Chef party. What a great thing. While I loved everything that was shown I could only purchase an item or two.

I used a Pampered Chef pan yesterday for a no-bake (great for summer) chocolate, p. butter, pretzel and Rice Krispie desert/snack. I love the measuring cups (no need to hold up the cup to see how full close it is to the desired amount) and the mini-loaf pans, too. At Christmas, I bake a variety of quick breads to give away to co-workers for a tasty, inexpensive, thoughtful gift. Thanks for offering these items to us!

Those muffins look so good! I didn’t eat breakfast yet, so I probably shouldn’t have looked at the pictures in this post. I think it’s a great idea to give some away to neighbors and friends; they would enjoy them. Since I like baking cakes so much, I’d love to have that Springform Pan. It would be extremely useful.

Though my children are grown now, I used to bake with them all the time. Its all part of learning. For a season we baked large amounts of Christmas goodies and gave them to neighbors and even to the ladies at the library.

Our wonderful neighbors brought my husband some empanadas to celebrate his first father’s day. You’re right about baked goods making a difference. My hubby was so touched!
I love everything I have ever purchased from Pampered Chef. Our most recent acquisition was their self-honing knives and they’re wonderful! I don’t have a springform pan and I’ve been eyeing this one since you posted that delicious-sounding cheesecake recipe last week!
I love the pictures of your daughter baking. Cooking with kids is a great way to introduce and reinforce fractions — a topic near and dear to my heart. :)

Before I started dating my now husband, I didn’t cook. At all. He has dietary restrictions, so now I cook all the time, but when I first got out of college, I went to a Pampered Chef party, explained my no-cooking stand, and was immediately told to purchase a set of plastic bowls and a metal thing to put in the bottom of a pan so your water doesn’t boil over! Those plastic bowls were a lifesaver – great for storing things and they look really nice for bringing salads to potlucks.
They’re pretty old now and starting to gray a little at the bottom, but since I’ve had them for over ten years, I can’t say that I blame them too much!

I do love Pampered Chef products – they’re the one “party product” that I’m actually interested in and have bought many times. My new ultimate favorite Pampered Chef products are my two sizes of dough scoops – the small one is perfect for cookies or mini muffins, and the medium on is perfect for regular muffins/cupcakes. These scoops make it extra fun for my son to bake with me, and help him get just the right amounts of dough in things.

I use my mini muffinpan all the time! My daughter loves to help me bake treats. And I decided about a year ago after I realized how many treats I throw away that everytime we made treats – we would take some to someone. It’s fun, makes us happy and our receivers happy and I’m not wasting things!

I’ve been doing tons of baking with my kids lately, which they love, because (not kidding here) my publisher is asking for a chocolate cookbook. (From a novelist. Go figure.)
So I seriously need a springform pan to try out and make up some recipes, particularly chocolate cheesecake!

I don’t bake with my kids because they are still too young, but I bake for them and for my husband (usually organic oatmeal cookies or lemon poppyseed muffins).I have never shopped at Pampered Chef, but I have thumbed through their catalog (my neighbor gets it), and I have seen several items that I like.

My children and I love making cookies together. They choose the variety, usually peanut butter/chocolate chip, and we create yummy cookies! I purchased cookie scoops from the Pampered Chef and love them. So much easier than using a regular teaspoon to scoop the dough onto the cookie trays and each cookie is perfect!
Thank you. :-)

I have a one-year-old and five older children who range in age from 24 to 11. You better believe we have had our share of kitchen fun over the years. One thing I wanted to say was how the baking activities really did more than inspire fun. All of my children know their way around the kitchen from our cooking experiences. My two older girls- who are now out of the house- can cook every bit as well as me. I still get the occasional “how do you make that” questions, but I know our kitchen time really paid off. Keep cooking with your kids!

I love to bake. I took a few classes at our local Hobby Lobby and learned how to decorate cakes. It’s so much fun. My 3 year old LOVES to use the hand held mixer. If I could just keep the beaters in the bowl ALL the time, there would be waaaaay less mess to clean up, but it probably wouldnt be as fun! LOL! Braden doesnt eat much of anything…he’s one of the pickiest eaters out there…but muffins he LOVES. Those mini muffins would be perfect for his little hands!!

i LOVE baking!!! and i LOVE baking with my boys! they get so excited to measure, pour, and stir. oh, and eat the finished product, of course! it may take some extra time when baking with kids, but it is well worth it : )
i’m always on the lookout for new recipes to try and i’m luck to have family and friends who don’t mind trying new baked goods. we also like to bake things to give away and bring when we go visiting.
as for pampered chef, i went to a party a long time ago and i think my sister-in-law may have a couple of their products. i don’t have a mini-muffin tin and have wished for one.

I’ve recently started baking myself and I have found that I LOVE IT! How can things turn out badly when you’ve got a ton of sugar, chocolate, or other sweet goodness in the recipe?
[Reply]

I really like the few Pampered Chef products I own. None of them are baking dishware, though. I love making and eating mini-muffins, but the pan I have (just something random from Target, if I recall correctly), is a total pain to clean. When using a non-stick spray, the individual tins clean fine, but the top gets gooey and absolutely refuses to scrub completely clean. Does the Pampered Chef muffin tin pan have that problem? I’d totally replace mine, if not!!
I rarely want to make a cheesecake, but when I do, I often ignore the desire simply because I don’t own a springform pan yet.
So, these two items are both things that I’d put to good use if I won them, that’s for sure!

I used to cook with Allison a lot more actually. I’m not sure why we haven’t recently. Maybe she’s just more interested in playing by herself or reading while I’m cooking. She does crack a mean egg though, usually better than me. I don’t own any Pampered Chef but I do look longingly at their stoneware for baking and I’ve heard great things about their pizza stone.

We have this wonderful elderly couple that live behind us! They were never able to have children.
We call them Grandma Ruth and Grandpa Otto. Whenever we have family over, Ruth and Otto and invited to join us. Our children have learned so much from them and the friendship is immeasurable.
Pampered Chef is fabulous. Please count me in.
Many thanks, Cindi

I try to involve my two-year-old in baking when I can. He loves to try and help. The flower usually ends up all over the place though. It is a good idea to use a scale for things like flower, that way your kid can just spoon it into the bowl until you say to stop when it gets to the correct weight. It also saves on dishes because you need fewer measuring cups.
I was given a Pampered Chef fluted pan as a wedding gift. I have only used it a few times. I don’t really know what all to use it for. With it I was given a cooling rack — that I use all the time and wish I had two of them at times.

I’ve visited the Pampered Chef, but have bought anything there yet, so I can’t tell you about how their products worked out for me. Looks like they worked out for you great. I’m going to try and talk hubby into letting me buy the springform pan, he loves cheesecake.

My boys use to help me bake all of the time. I really wanted to instill in them a love of cooking and baking. Their dad bakes with them also when they are with him.
I, myself, bake for other people very often because my gift is giving the gift of food. When someone new moves into the neighborhood they get a loaf of fresh baked bread from me.
I have always loved Pampered Chef products. My husband makes his own homemade pizza and he always uses their pizza stone. We have two, in case we have company and need to make another pizza. I use their loaf pans to make my homemade bread and their muffin pans.
the only baking pan I don’t have is a springform pan which is why I would love to win this one!
Thanks!

Baking muffins is the most favorite activity of my 2 year old girl. She totally does not care about any toys I give her and prefer baking to any other activity. She loves poining at the muffin cups telling me which one I should fill up next. And then of course we turn the light in the oven and watch the muffins. And after they are done and the timer goes off, she runs to the kitchen creaming for joy…

I bake with Calvin occasionally and he often helps with dinner. He likes to open cans, add ingredients and stir.
I don’t have a lot of experience with Pampered Chef. I tried a “cookie sheet” baking stone. But I didn’t care for it…too heavy and I didn’t use it often enough to season it making it nice and slick. But I passed it along to a friend who loved it, so nothing was lost.
I also have a Pampered Chef recipe that I love: Mexican Two Bean Chicken Chili!

My mum and I have built so many happy memories around baking that will stay with me for the rest of my life. Now I create new memories with my daughter by sharing grandmother’s recipes with her and her friends. Pampered Chef products are top notch. I’ve used them for as long as I can recall.

I love baking! And now that my kids are old enough to help, they are beginning to love it as well. We make cupcakes A LOT and almost always make homemade buttercream icing to go with them. :) We also make a lot of brownies. I have a few pampered chef products and really like them. I’d love to have the springform and muffin pans! Great giveaway!

We love to bake at our house and do it weekly at least. The messes are getting smaller as the kids grow older but no amount of mess can supercede the wonderful times we have had in the kitchen. Our favorite family baked goods are cupcakes. Everyone gets so creative with the toppings.

I love to bake with my 4 year old, who is allergic to wheat. Baking our own is the only way to have many things which are otherwise baked with wheat. We’ve been baking banana bread like mad because our banana trees have been producing like crazy, I’d estimate 80 lbs in the past month! That’s alot of bananas! And yes, we’ve been giving lots away, both bananas and bread. I’ve never used a springform pan but have wanted one for a while, and I’d never seen the pampered chef site before.

Baking is something that I truly love. I remember baking with my teen-age granddaughter when she was a toddler. Every ingredient I used had to be tested by her first.Her finger was dipped into evrything even the crisco.Baking with grandchildren is much more fun than baking with your own children.

Pampered chef has great products…a bit expensive, but very high quality. I do bake often, and for everyone! The kids, school, my co-workers, my family. The boys like to break the eggs, but other than that, they aren’t too interested in baking….just eating, and boy do they do a good job with that! I love that mini-muffin pan and would super to win. Thanks for the giveaway.

Sometimes I let my kids stir the batter, but I haven’t really learned the art of baking with my kids yet. I enjoy baking, whether it’s for my family or for others. I have several Pampered Chef products and like the quality of all of them. My kids love it when I make sandwiches with the press and seal tool.

we’re more of a cooking family than baking. the kids LOVE to be in the kitchen helping even if helping means hanging off our legs waiting for us to move so they get a ride.
we usually cook twice what we need and then randomly invite people over to share it with us so we can get to know them or sometimes we’ll call someone up and tell them we were thinking of them and we are bringing them supper.
as for pampered chef. i only have a couple of things by them and I LOVE THEM! (also have a couple of things i saw in their new catalogue for my birthday wishlist that i’m going to hint at when that time come around)

I have always wanted a springform pan, but never bought one. Why? I have no idea. But I want to make cheesecakes. Like, I have a burning desire to make cheesecakes.
I have some Pampered Chef stuff – it’s good stuff. But I was poor at the time my circle was doing those parties – years ago. So I bought stuff like the little one dollar paring knives. Those are good knives, too! I wish I had bought more. I also bought these tubes the girl said would be great to toss a can of muffins in. They are shaped like hearts and stars. I’ve never used them. Not even once. I should have bought the springform pan.

To help him with his career goals (he’s 6), we bake together every week and then the kids run around with our goodies to all of the neighbors. They know when my kids ring the doorbell, it means cupcakes, brownies, cookies and more!

I have bought a lot of stuff from PC and love 99% of it. I just didn’t care for the tongs and something else that I’ve since given away.
I’d love both of these things. My Hubby loves cheese cake but we don’t have a pan, and Lily is starting solids and I thing mini muffins would be good in a couple of months.

Now that I am home, every day, I have begun spending more time baking and cooking. Before, it was ’30 minutes or less’ if someone didn’t grab takeout before I got home. I noticed in an earlier post that someone had a pumpkin red velvet cake recipe? I’ve never heard of such a thing, but I’m off to find the recipe. Red Velvet is my husband’s favorite cake, and I love to make it. I don’t own a springform pan, but I’ve sure been wanting one. The baking pans I use now are fine, but it is often that I wished I had a springform.

I tried making cheese cake a while back. I don’t own a springform pan. I tried lining a different pan with buttered parchment and it still wouldn’t come out. The cheese cake tasted good, but it really messed up since the crust stuck halfway in the pan. When I was little, I learned how to bake with my mom, but she didn’t bake often. I actually ended up baking things more often than she did once I was old enough to be trusted. She baked even less when I started making improvements on her recipes.

I love baking with my children just like my mom would bake with me. There is something so wonderful about the kitchen filled with the warmth of the oven and the warmth of being together. I know that I am giving my children the memories I was given when my mom and I baked together.

Cheesecake and I have a special relationship. Unfortunately, I don’t have a springform pan, so I’ve never had the opportunity to create my own real cheesecake. Sadness. It’s time for our relationship to move to the next level, don’t you think?
But I digress. In answer to your questions, yes, I bake for my children. Occasionally (they are young and I don’t often let them have dessert unless it’s a special day). More often I bake for others, for events, for guests coming to dinner, etc. I love it. I also love Pampered Chef; I have a cookbook and a few items from them, including a pizza stone that I’ve used for various things. I can’t afford it most of the time, though, so I’d love to get these quality items.

Oops. Yes, I also bake WITH my children. They love pouring and stirring and peering into the oven to see things rise and brown and change. They also love sampling afterward, but I think that goes without saying.

I love baking with my 2 1/2 year old–he loves it, too. Lucky for him we consume plenty of baked goods around here!
I love pampered chef, but am still too poor (hubs is a phd student) to afford them.

I do bake with my daughter. She is getting older now and can actually bake on her own. I know she would love the muffin pans! I have bought Pampered Chef before and have several of their items. Very good products.

I love giving home-baked goods as gifts, and baking with kids makes it even more fun, though it may take a little longer :)
I have bought several items from Pampered Chef. My current favorite is the Mix ‘n Chop.

I’ve been embarrassingly hesitant to give away our baked goods. We have several food allergies and don’t cook with eggs or milk – so our muffins, etc don’t taste exactly like people are used to. I know I should just get over that and do it anyway, LOL. My kids LOVE to bake and I’m gaining weight with us keeping it all!
We love Pampered Chef stuff here. I don’t think I’ve come across one product of theirs that didn’t deliver.

I love baking — especially fattening chocolate treats — so giving them away is my specialty (I don’t keep them all here to munch on)!
I love Pampered Chef products! Thanks for the chance.

I do bake although I tend to do more “kid Friendly” things like cookies, muffins, and brownies. I’d love to venture back into adult fare like cheesecake!
I LOVE Pampered Chef products. I have quite a few of their items and love each one, from my stones all the way down to my little scraper. Thanks.

My 2 year old actually LOVES helping to bake cookies. The first time he was required to dump chocolate chips into the batter he was visibly conflicted. He has since learned the art of “one for me . . . one for the dough”!

I like giving and receiving the quality Pampered Chef products. In the summer I use the insulated storage bowls with lids for salads and desserts. In East Tennessee brides can have Pampered Chef showers where the bride has preselected items she would like to have and guests can buy these things for her. Great giveaway!

My kids are grown & don’t live here anymore, BUT they do come over to bake with me sometimes. We baked together a lot when they lived here. I’ve always loved baking, and all 3 of them seem to have taken after me in this, to some degree. I have a few Pampered Chef gadgets from parties of long ago. I think the one I used the most was a pancake mold in the shape of a bear. My kids loved that one. Hopefully, I’ll be using it to make pancakes for my grandkids in a few years…

This is a great giveaway. I am an avid baker, and like yourself, I give baked products to all the neighbors. I also bring them to work and see my colleagues happily nibbling all day long. It does my heart good. I could use some new pans. It would be nice, and totally unexpected if I won. Thanks for the opportunity.

Honestly, I love to bake but I am not a very good baker. Something usually turns out wrong even if I follow the recipe..I have no clue why. I used to blame it on the oven but we just got a new one so no excuses anymore! But practice makes perfect right? I usually bake for my husband and he’ll eat my wacky baked goods =)

I love baking with my nieces and nephews – it’s not only a great time and really fun to teach them about cooking and baking, but it’s also a nice way to give lessons in math, chemistry, and physics, which satisfies the nerd in me. :) I have the Pampered Chef cake pans and cookie press, and both of which are awesome – extremely durable and reliable products! Myself, I love to bake for potlucks and dinner parties, so I’d love the chance to win this giveaway and add cheesecake and muffins to my must-bake list. Thanks!
