Chocolate Cake Batter Cupcakes
Continuing on with my dating/boy crazy/Valentine’s theme… The Story: I gave him the best flirty eyes I could manage but I don’t think I could cover up the fact that my face was turning beet red.

Frankenstein Cupcakes

M&M Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting
The Story: “She likes Peanut Butter M&M’s.” Well the peanut butter ones are HUGE, so I didn’t want to throw those into the batter. But a cupcake sprinkled with mini M&M’s with a peanut butter frosting gives the same effect. These were just adorable too! So bright and perfect for any kids party or birthday.
Keebler Cupcakes
