It has been a very busy Christmas season. I meant to put up a new post several days ago, but time got away from me.
Let me first say, Merry Christmas! I hope you and your family have a very blessed Christmas.
Now, its the day before Christmas, aka Christmas Eve, and you are thinking to yourself, "What can I make for dessert that's festive, creative, and easy to make?" Well, I believe I have the answer for you. Cupcakes.
Make any cupcake you like and any frosting you like. After piping the frosting on, decorate like this (below).
You may be wondering what "this" is. All I did was melt some almond bark, put in a sandwich baggie with a small corner tip cut off, and then wrote words with it. It's really that simple.
Everyone who saw these cupcakes were amazed. They couldn't figure out how I did it. I basked in the glory of stumping some people. Not only, these cupcakes are festive, and it looks as though I put immense work into them but in all reality, it was pretty simple.
To make these you will need:
- Frosted cupcakes
- Chocolate to melt (almond bark, chocolate chip, Wilton melties)
- Sandwich baggie, with a small tip cut off in one corner.
- Wax paper
Directions:
- Melt chocolate in a bowl in the microwave. Place a sheet of wax paper on cookie sheet (That's what I do so that it can easily be moved).
- After chocolate has melted, spoon some chocolate in the sandwich baggie.
- Now carefully, with the baggie like you were piping frosting, write words on the wax paper.
- Allow to cool (you may put it in the freezer or the fridge so that it will harden quicker or to store)
- Carefully remove from wax paper, and place gently on top of frosted cupcake.
- Enjoy and be amazed.
Have a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to comment or email me.
Peace, love, bake on.
