Cupcake Popper Recipe


Ok, so I am not really your, make stuff from scratch kinda gal.
I use cheater recipies! hehe
For those of you that are just like me...

Here is a recipe for you :)

Cupcake Poppers


  • 1 box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® white cake mix
  • Water, vegetable oil, egg whites called for on cake mix box
  • 1/4 teaspoon each gel or liquid food colors (neon pink, neon purple, neon orange, neon green, classic blue)
Filling
  • 1 1/2 cups marshmallow creme
  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
  • Gel or liquid food colors (neon pink, neon purple, neon orange, neon green, classic blue)

  Directions

1. Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 60 mini muffin cups. Make cake batter as directed on box. Divide batter among 5 small bowls, about 3/4 cup each. Make 5 different colors of batter by adding 1/4 teaspoon food color to each bowl; blend well.

2. Fill each muffin cup with 1 level measuring tablespoon batter, making 12 cupcakes of each color.

3. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pan. Cool completely, about 10 minutes.

4. In large bowl, beat marshmallow creme and butter with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Beat in powdered sugar until fluffy. Divide frosting among 5 small bowls, about 1/3 cup each. Using the same 5 food colors, lightly tint frosting in each bowl to match the cupcake colors.

5. Assemble each popper using 2 mini cupcakes. Cut tops off each cupcake horizontally (save bottoms for another use). Spread or pipe about 1 tablespoon frosting on cut side of 1 cupcake top. Form a sandwich by placing cut side of second cupcake top on frosting; press lightly. Repeat with remaining cupcake tops. Store loosely covered.



So there ya go!
It seems like a sugar overload huh? lol
Happy Baking.

A small wish list

Giving feels great!

This was supposed to be my birthday gift back in October, but I can't seem to find it in stores anymore!

Women

I have been wanting this soo bad!
I found a great deal on this 20% orginal price ($100) plus free shipping.
My boyfriend has promised to buy this for me! 


However ... I do not understand how there are only

I think that is discrimination! haha
Not Everyone is lucky to be an Xsmall!
I need a medium!

Vote for Summer!


Vote for Summer !

Summer's Speech: Well, I'd never thought I would make it here today.  I would be a great class president because I promise to put two new pot machines in the cafeteria.  And I'm also gonna get a glitter Bonnie bell dispenser for all the girls' bathrooms.  Oh, we're gonna get new cheerleading uniforms.  Anyway I think I'd be a great class president.  Who wants to eat chimmychangas all year long?  Not me. See, with me it will be summer all year long.


♥ ♥ ♥
Ok, Do you ever have those times where you keep remembering only a really small line of a song or movie and can't get only that line outta your head?

For me today it's been "Vote for Summer"
from Napoleon Dynamite.
I dooooo not know why!!!!
hahahha

So to honor that phrase (and the moment I am having) haha
I decided to blog some funny stills & quotes
 from one of the most funniest/dumbest movies of all time.

Here we go ...

"It'd be nice if you could pull me into town"


Pervert Uncle Rico

Deb: Kay, hold still right there. Now, just imagine you're weightless, in the middle of the ocean, surrounded by tiny little seahorses.

[Uncle Rico gives a gleaming look at the camera]

Deb: [takes the picture] That was one that I think is gonna come out really nice.

Uncle Rico: Ah, how you did it... wow... well I felt really relaxed. Thanks Deb.

 
LAFAWNDUHHH


There you go, short & sweet!

HAHAHAHA you can either love or hate this movie.
Right?
To be honest the first time I seen this movie, I felt like I got a little dumber.
Second time I watched it, I loved hahah!
Weird, i know.

But gee, those of you who have seen it know the lines are catchy!!
Who has seen the movie?
Love it? Hate it?
Just got a little dumber reading this? lol jk
