This past Sunday was my 23rd birthday.
I can't believe it's already almost the middle of February because I'm still wondering where 2011 went if we're being honest here.
When J and I were talking about plans for the birthday weekend festivities he asked me if I'd like a regular cake, cupcakes or an ice cream cake. And while I would really love all of the above because I'm a huge dessert fan I actually opted out for none. You're in complete shock now, right?
Instead of buying a delicious treat I wanted to try a new recipe, something from my Sweet Treats board on Pinterest and these are what I picked.
They were incredibly simple to make and I whipped them up during the Super Bowl on Sunday afternoon. I actually worked on them when the actual game was on because honestly, I didn't care much about who won the game. I was more interested in the commercials and half-time show. Here's how mine turned out....
I made one batch of mini cupcake size and the rest as regular size. If I were to do it again I would make them all mini because they were the perfect bite-size snack to curb that sweet tooth. They are so rich, so delicious and pretty filling. To keep J and myself from eating every single one of them I brought a big tupperware full of them to work on Monday and they were a huge hit. The empty tupperware came home with me the next day!
I chalk this recipe up as a success! I will definitely be making them again and I suggest you consider doing the same if you're in need, whether socially or personally, ;-) of a little something sweet.
