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!

This sounds so amazing!
Mouth watering 🙂 I love cannolis and I am sure my husband and I would finish this ice cream off quick!!

I bet you would love it. And I’m sure you could find a bakery who would sell you cannoli shells. I couldn’t find anything in Cincinnati and I didn’t have time to make any, so I had to go with store bought…
Genius! I love the idea of this ice cream, I would hoard this for myself!!! Looks absolutely sinful!

Hehe, I know what you mean. Sometimes I hide desserts in the freezer and don’t tell Hubby where they went 😉
It was so delicious. I might try and make it soon.
oh man, i am so trying this!!! I love the filing of cannolis but could take or leave the shell, so I think this would be perfect 🙂

I’m sure you would love this – you could even leave out the shell pieces if you wanted to.
