15 Deliciously-Amazing Cupcakes You Need To Make
Le Dolci

So I have recently started to watch the show "2 Broke Girls," which is about two girls trying to start their own cupcake business, and now I can't stop craving cupcakes! The cupcakes on the show always look so delicious and I spend the entire 30 minutes I am watching the show controlling myself from getting up and making my own small stash of cupcakes. I finally gave in the other night and started looking for cupcake recipes, and I found so many delicious looking cupcakes! Here are fifteen deliciously-amazing cupcakes to make when you can't control your sweet tooth:


1. Monster Cookie Dough Cupcakes

I used this recipe and made monster cookie dough cupcakes and they were absolutely delicious! Although the cupcakes required a lot of ingredients, most of them were things you would normally have in your kitchen. You use a lot of peanut butter in this recipe, so if you are not a big peanut butter person I would cut down on the amount of peanut butter or make a different cupcake and use the frosting recipe. The frosting was one of the best homemade ones that I have ever had! This recipe is easy to follow and makes delicious cupcakes and I will definitely use it again.


Ingredients

Cupcakes:

  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups flour
  • 1¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Cookie Dough Frosting:

  • 8 oz. cream cheese, softened (don't use reduced fat or fat free!)
  • ½ c. butter, softened
  • ½ c. creamy peanut butter
  • 1- 2 c. powdered sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 c. oats
  • ¾ bag plain mini M&Ms
  • ¾ cup mini or regular semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350º.
  2. Use a hand or stand mixer to whisk together all of the cupcake ingredients except for the chocolate chips.
  3. Then, stir in the chocolate chips with a spoon or spatula.
  4. Fill each cupcake liner about ⅔ full of batter.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack.
  6. Meanwhile, use a stand mixer dough paddle to beat together the cream cheese, butter, and peanut butter until smooth.
  7. Mix in the brown sugar, flour, vanilla, and oats.
  8. Mix in the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time (1 and ½ cups worked out best for me).
  9. Finally add the M&Ms and Chocolate chips, mix well.
  10. Use a large cookie scoop or ice cream scoop to scoop out the cookie dough onto the completely cooled cupcakes.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
