I hope this is in time to help you. But I am a Pampred Chef Consultant and we make Barbie cakes with the batter bowl. Here is the recipe that we use. I hope it helps.
Cake
2 packages (18.25 ounces each) yellow cake mix (plus ingredients to make cake)
Frosting
1 package (2 pounds) powdered sugar (about 7 cups), divided
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 tablespoon clear vanilla extract
6-7 tablespoons milk, divided
Food coloring (optional)
Decorations
7-inch doll pick cake decoration or 11-inch fashion doll
Ribbon, lace, tulle and straight pins
Directions:
1. For cake, preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and flour Classic Batter Bowl. Prepare 1 cake mix according to package directions. Pour into batter bowl. Bake 1 hour, 10 minutes to 1 hour, 15 minutes or until Cake Tester inserted in center comes out clean. Remove to Stackable Cooling Rack. Cool 15 minutes. Run knife around outside of cake and gently turn out onto cooling rack, large end down. Repeat with remaining cake mix to make a second cake. Cool 3 hours.
2. For frosting, combine half of the powdered sugar with butter, shortening, vanilla and 3 tablespoons of the milk in large bowl. Beat with electric mixer until smooth. Add remaining powdered sugar. Beat until light and fluffy, adding more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, as needed for good spreading consistency. Tint some of the frosting with food coloring, if desired.
3. To assemble cake, using Serrated Bread Knife, trim off rounded bottoms of cakes to level. Slice off 2 inches from bottom (large end) of one cake and arrange on serving platter to serve as bottom of doll's skirt. (Wrap and freeze unused top portion of first cake for later use.)
4. Frost sides and top of cake on platter using Small Spreader; top with second cake. Frost second cake. Wrap top of doll with ribbon or lace; secure in back with pins. Insert doll into cake. To serve, remove doll and cut cake into slices with serrated bread knife.
