NOW I've gone and
done it! I've crossed from recreational
cupcakes to the hard stuff and I'm not sure I'll be able to control this. I'm not sure I even want to!
The "hard stuff" is Snickers Cupcakes. This
recipe rates a full scale O M G.

| Just looking at the picture makes me want a cupcake NOW! |
The recipe can be
found at My Baking Addiction http://www.mybakingaddiction.com/snickers-cupcakes/ It's one of the recipes I'd marked to try
out . If I ever thought I could stop
making cupcakes, this just put an end to that thought. I should just start applying to be on The
Biggest Loser now, because just one cupcake must be 4000 calories. And I DON'T CARE!
I was a bit
concerned about the measurements in the recipe since my trusty Duncan Hines
Devil's Food Cake mix is now short 2 ounces AND I didn't have the large package
of chocolate pudding mix. I kept to the
recipe except for using less cake mix and pudding and they came out
unbelievably amazingly totally yummy GREAT!
This recipe was
originally posted in 2010 and is still
getting comments on the My Baking Addiction blog and I noticed one from just a
couple of days ago asking what to do if the only cake mix you can find already
has pudding in it. She responded to just
use the smaller 3.9 oz box of pudding.
I'm anxious to try this recipe again with a) a large box of chocolate
pudding and b) with the smaller box of pudding in the cake mix with the pudding
already in it. I'm curious what the
difference might be. Probably not much -
I swoon too much when eating these to take note of anything but a huge
difference! LOL
If you like Snickers
at all, you MUST make these cupcakes.
They're very easy. Just watch out
that you don't taste test the frosting too much (spoken as someone who did). It is VERY sweet and it is VERY delicious and
VERY addicting. Also, I had exactly the
amount needed to pipe the frosting on top.
