So bored today, made Cream Puffs...

Yeah... bored...

When Daddy is away...

Chocolate Peanut Butter Babies

Guess I'm on a chocolate peanut butter kick... I don't even eat it! My brother will scarf these down tomorrow morning with his workmates. Unless he lies and says there was none... Gents, he's full of shit.

Chocolate Fudge Cake with Peanut Butter Icing

Icing approved by both Maisie and Olive.

Dear God, Please don't let it leave a grease mark...

It's going to be my own fault really... I didn't have to roast her another bone, or give it to her when it seemed she was about to call it a day. But here she is, ignoring that giant moquito thing flying around the house, ignoring the cat, ignoring the people walking past our house (some guard dog). All she cares about is that greasy, juicy, roasted bone. That same bone I will have to hide or it will be deep under the covers, where I will find it around 4am... after my toe goes into the marrow hole...

Almost Cute like a Chihuaha... almost

Bakerella makes these super cute mini cupcake pops. Hit up her link and swoon. Almost as cute as a Chihuahua but still a long shot.

Small won't kill ya...

Sweet Georgia "Dan"

The Making of a Coronary...

Make delicious mocha cake, poke holes, cover cake holes in dulce de leche (home made fyi...) then fill holes with caramel and pecans.

Repeat with middle layer of cake, but cover in pecans.

Stack, fill with lots of icing to fill in any gaps (as if there were any!)

Layer cake with mounds of chocolate mousse icing.
Add more icing, more pecans, more caramel, more chocolate, more dulce de leche...

Call paramedics.

'Tis Cute...and functional!

Stuff that Cakehole! (dedicated to Royanne)

Chocolate Cupcakes stuffed with my "secret peanut butter fattness"

Step 1: 2 cups sugar, 1 3/4 cups AP flour, 3/4 cups cocoa, 1.5 tsp baking soda, 1.5 tsp baking powder (mhhmm...both), 1 tsp salt, 2 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, 2 tsp vanilla, 1/2 cup of oil (whatever you want- tried it all, it all works), 1 cup of boiling water.

Here's the best part! Just throw it all in a big bowl and mix! I suggest adding the boiling water last- so you don't cook the eggs. The batter will be really thin, but it's suppose to be.

Step 2: fill liners 3/4 full...may I once again suggest an ice cream scoop? Use it.

Step 3: Preheat over to 350...ahh... yeah, should have put that in step 1. You're smart, you'll get it. Bake for 22 minutes (based on my oven) or until cake is springy.

Step 4: with piping bag, stuff each cupcake with enough filling to make it swell but not bust. Takes a delicate hand, but again I have faith you can do it.

Step 5: Ice the hole to cover the surprise (mind out of the gutter perverts...)

Step 6: Test drive one so you don't go giving away crappy cupcakes! Just as I thought- tastes like I might be having two. (I don't like icing so I put one aside for me)
