GRASSHOPPER CUPCAKES.

it's true.
i made a fun cupcake. with a fun filling. and mostly of my own creation!
check it out.


yeah. they're delectable. and unfortunately, i didn't take a picture of the inside... but it's got a filling, too!


basic idea: chocolate cupcake.
my recipe wasn't awesome, so use your own!
filling: marshmallow cream and a bit of peppermint extract--mix them together and fill the cupcake.
frosting: my classic vanilla buttercream (6 cups powdered sugar, 2 sticks unsalted butter, a little vanilla and milk) plus some peppermint extract (i just kept adding until it tasted minty enough but not overwhelming).
frost that trash. added sprinkles and a piece of a grasshopper cookie.
these taste like heaven. i'm not kidding.
so jump on it!

  4. you just cut out the middle and fill it with whatever you want! Then frost over top so that you can't see the hole :)
