Halloween Cupcakes
I made cupcakes for the Monday Night Football game a couple weeks ago. Since I made 2 batches, I froze 1/2 to save for Halloween. I took the cupcakes and frosting out of the freezer on the 29th and put them into the fridge. Then on the 30th I took them out and set them on the counter for about an hour before decorating them.
I had a lot of fun decorating them and I think they turned out great. One note about black frosting – it stains your mouth really bad!! With the mini cupcakes for MNF, I don’t think anyone noticed, but I ate one of the orange cupcakes and my tongue and teeth were black until I drank a glass of water. I told hubby to warn his coworkers before they took one!

Cannolis have to be one of my absolute favorite desserts… BOOKMARKING THIS! Yum!
Love this idea…i felt they were kinda missing the crunch of the cannoli shell…so I used some broken up peices of storebought sugar ice cream cones as sone added garnish…perfect touch
Making these now for Christmas Day – they can be refrigerated that long if sealed, right?

Sorry for not replying sooner, I was offline for the holidays. The cupcakes can def be kept in the fridge for a couple days. Hope they turned out for you.
Tried the recipe, turned out way too loose to pipe Cheese was strained for 24 hours. Flavor was fine. Tried adding more powdered sugar to thicken it up. Didn’t work and eventually just tasted like sugar. Any suggestions?
