Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Toasted Marshmallow Cupcakes

The second I saw these cupcakes, I knew I had to make them.
Chocolate? Peanut butter cookie dough? Marshmallow frosting/meringue? Can there BE a better combination?
I generally always try to bake interesting desserts - like instead of making boring brownies, I make cheesecake-swirled brownies. Instead of plain old chocolate cupcakes, I make these babies.


Firstly, the chocolate cake itself was AMAZING. I was a bit nervous about using the vinegar at first, but it made the cupcakes taste really good. The cupcakes don't really rise that much, which makes them perfect to stuff with cookie dough. The peanut butter cookie dough was also really good - so good that I kept nomming it! I was lucky that I had enough to stuff into the cupcakes with. As for the frosting, however... it wasn't that great. Initially I'd tried the recipe that Joy used, but I just couldn't get any peaks, so I used my mom's meringue recipe for it. It was rather bland compared to the rest of the cupcakes, so I'd use a chocolate frosting or something like that. Maybe a cream cheese one? (You can't go wrong with cream cheese frosting! ;))


So... you should make these. Now. 

Cake Batter Bars

These Cake Batter Bars were pretty yummy! They didn't taste like cake batter, but they were still delicious. Unfortunately, they did only use about half a package of cake mix, and they were pretty messy. Nevertheless, I would definitely make these again, if only to just use up some cake mix! ;)

Simply Sinful Cinnamon Muffins

Hi! I figured I should start my new blog off with a bang. These Cinnamon Muffins are pretty amazing. I'm basically obsessed with streusel, so that was what I was hoping would be the best part of the muffins, and I wasn't disappointed! The muffins themselves aren't too moist or too dry, the cinnamon swirl adds a burst of flavor, and the topping is incredibly yummy - so these muffins really are perfect! The only thing I would do differently is add more white chocolate chips, because they also gave a really good flavor to the muffin.
