The Story:
Halloween is over and we are headed into the BEST time of the year. Literally count down the days until Thanksgiving (21 days) so that I can watch my favorite movie of all time, Miracle on 34th Street. I watch the old and the new version every Thanksgiving after I stuff myself to the brim.

Hi Lizzy, I love seeing what you’re up too on a daily basis and have made many of your fabulous cupcakes. Thanks for all the great inspiration, I can duplicate your cupcakes, but not your photography, the pictures are always stunning! I’m envious of your mad skills! I would like you to answer a question though….if you had to pick one..what is your ALL TIME FAVORITE-GO TO cupcake ( for yourself) ?
Thanks!
Hmm… I would have to say any type of chocolate and coconut cupcake 🙂

Well, I knew we were similar, but wow! My favorite Christmas movie AND a fabulous cupcake! Oh yea! We watch both versions of Miracle on Christmas day. This year, we’ll be adding Les Miserables, too. Thank you for the recipe!!!

Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against hackers?
I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on.
Any recommendations?
These look delicious!! Can’t wait to try them this weekend! 🙂
I am so happy deal with you, good quality bag and fashion style, and great for my fashion show.
If I don’t have the white cake mix, can I used other ingredient ?
Hey Lizzy! Thanks for a great recipe! I tried these out a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely loved them! I just blogged about them here: http://creationsfromthehart.wordpress.com/ Check it out when you have some free time 🙂 Thanks again!!
I made these over the weekend and loved them so much I wrote about them on my blog today (w/ a link back here for the recipe). Thanks for the great recipe!
These look amazing! What do you use for the caramel though?? Ive tried melting caramels before and I’ve tried the caramel that you put on ice cream sundays, but they didn’t turn out right.
I’d also like to know what kind of caramel works to drizzle over frosting. I’ve tried a homemade caramel, and even though it was cool, it seemed to draw moisture and made the frosting runny by morning. It was an absolute mess. Any suggestions?
Drizzle caramel just before serving! I honestly just used a store bought ice cream caramel topping. But a thicker homemade caramel should work too.
Hi is the recipe’s temperature stated in degree Celsius or in Fahrenheit ?:)
Fahrenheit!
Hi Lizzy! Love your site.
Say – could I make these cupcakes with a chocolate cupcake instead of a white or yellow cupcake?
Thanks!
Yes of course!
