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!

What a fun contribution to a virtual bridal shower. What girl doesn’t like cupcakes? Love that they’re filled too. Fantastic!

I make a rhubarb syrup that is wonderful heated up and served on vanilla ice cream. Simmer rhubarb just covered in water for a couple hours to pull the flavor and color out. Strain and add sugar to desired sweetness and bring to a boil like you’re going to make jelly but omit the pectin. I water bath it like
Jelly as I usually end up with a lot of pints. From your description this would be good on your rolls
