Inside Out Cup Cakes

Inside Out Cup Cakes

A couple of days ago I was getting out all the things I needed to make my cookies and bark when I came across some silicone cup cake molds I bought earlier this year. I thought they were cute when I got them but was unsure what I would use them for.

Now here they were again and again I was faced with the question what to do with these cupcake molds. The only reason for the question of what to use them for is because they are much shallower than the average cupcake tins.

I didn’t think about it long instead I got the rest of the things I needed for making my cookies and bark out of the pantry and busied myself making a list of the things I would need from the store.

Today I went shopping to get what I needed. It was when I was in the Dollar Tree the idea hit me what to make with these molds.

It came to me when I saw Mrs. Fields cupcake mixes.

You cannot get much better chocolate chip cookies than Mrs. Fields so the cupcakes have to be good too. That’s when the idea hit me why not combine two cupcakes to make one and put the frosting in the center!

This is an experiment so I am not going to make this stuff from scratch instead I bought two boxes one in vanilla and one in chocolate.

Then picked up some whipped frosting in vanilla and chocolate and added to the basket some black walnuts and sprinkles and I was all set.

I came home and made the cupcakes. Well just one batch I was not going to waste both boxes of cupcake mixes if this idea did not pan out.

After the cupcakes were cool I frosted the top of one cupcake and sprinkled it with sprinkles then a second one I sprinkled the frosting with wild black walnuts.

Of course I am the taste tester so I had half of each one.

I think they turned out great!

Give it a try why not do something different with cupcakes?

If you don’t have the cupcake pans like I do then just fill have way up in your standard pans.

Then when they are cooled do as I did with mine and all that is left after that is to enjoy!
