Does anyone remember "Snackin' Cake?" I think that's what it was called. Boxed cake mix you could whip up in a 8x8 pan and eat w/o frosting. Not the kind of thing I'd have in my house now..but...
I would love to make a sourdough starter from scratch version of it. Would this recipe work w/no frosting and does anyone have proportions for a smaller pan? It's just two of us here, struggling to keep weight down and loving our food!
btw. made pancakes with the sourdough discarded cup. Fantastic. But we cannot eat pancakes every day. We're on day three and I think that will be the end of the discard batter (I used the waffle recipe and just dropped in some frozen blueberries. SO good.)
Can I use the cup I cull out to begin another starter for different bread?
Any suggestions appreciated!

Jacqueline, you could simply cut the recipe in half and bake in a 9" round cake pan. Frosting is good, but of course you can always enjoy cake without it. And yes, you can use the 1 cup of starter to begin a new starter, for sure; just feed it with 1 cup flour and 1/2 cup water, and go from there. Enjoy - PJH
