These are so great, easy to make and I keep them in the freezer, my dogs know when the greezer opens they’ll get a treat. I made them small for that reason.

In reply to Shar.

Cook the vegetables for 2 minutes, then add the chicken broth and chicken and cook until the chicken is fully cooked at 165°, over medium heat. No need to cover with a lid, but you can if you prefer.

how long to cook the vegetables and chicken and broth? Also do I put the top on pan?

I’m so glad this worked out well for you, it really is great to have options when certain ingredients aren’t readily available at a reasonable cost. Have a wonderful time on your trip.

I am missionary in Kenya for a year, and many US products are not available here. Cream cheese is very rarely sold in packets of about 6 tablespoons, and it is VERY expensive. I was thrilled when I tried this recipe and it turned out to be AMAZING! I put it on every cake I make, now. It is just so delicious! Thanks for sharing it!

The filling is a very thick custard and what a lot of bakeries would use. When I made this particular wedding cake, it was out of the fridge from noon until 8 pm, and the filling was perfect. No seeping out at all. The cake was for a back yard wedding in August. So it was hot, and the cake was kept in a cool spot in the garage and we had no issues. I’ve used this filling for lots of cakes and it’s always done extremely well. If won’t seep out if you have crumb-coated and final coated the sides. Fillings seep out when there is no barrier. I pipe around the whole perimeter on top of the bottom layer of cake, and fill it. Creating a “dam,” and that is how the filling stays put. Happy Baking!

I am thinking of trying this for a friends wedding. My question is, how does the cream filling hold up when the cake is sitting out during wedding and reception? I don’t want it to go soft and start seeping out, but it looks absolutely delicious!

Pumpkin season is in full swing and I couldn’t wait to make these scones. I had my sister in law over yesterday and we both ate so many of them, they were so flavorful. We barely wanted to share with our husbands!
