A cake mix &




My lil boy came in the other night asking me to make some more cupcakes. I was in the baking mood and but was also trying to clean so I whipped out a 2 handy dandy cake mixes (yes I too use these) BUT I couldn't just make plain cupcakes so I started pulling stuff out of the pantry to experiment with and here is some of our ideas.

Peanut butter
Strawberry pie filling
Raspberry pie filling
Cherry pie filling
Caramels
Mints
Etc.

Man this was so much fun, it was like a cupcake sundae :) It would be super fun to do for a birthday party!!!

So all we did was make a cake mix according to the directions on the box. Then poured it into cupcakes leaving room for toppings & room to grow. Then we put a spoonful of peanut butter, strawberry, etc. If your putting the candy in you have to cover it with just a little bit of cake mix.

Bake according to directions on box. When cooled frost with frosting or eat without :)

Or you can make cake pops:


Make & bake cake according to directions on box. When cake has completely cooled crumble it into a bowl. Mix one tub of prepared frosting with cake. Form into silver dollar sized balls. Place in fridge for 30 minutes. When ready melt some chocolate. Dip sucker sticks in chocolate 1/2" the stick in cake balls. Let cool then dip balls in chocolate, making sure to cover the whole ball. Tap stick to shake off excess chocolate. Roll in sprinkles, crushed candy bars or cookies, or let set up then drizzle with white chocolate. Chill.
