Here come the holidays!!!

It's definitely been a while! I apologize for not posting much the last few months, its been pretty hectic over here and there hasn't been much time for baking, blogging, or cooking in general! But I figured since the holidays are quickly approaching it would be a good time to share some fun holiday ideas! I LOOOVVVEEEE the holidays!! We are going to a Halloween party tonight and so I made some fun festive brownies! The are pretty much the same as the last ones I blogged about but I added some Halloween fun!

Fun Halloween Cupcake paper

Any kind of chocolate cake (I made Devil's Food, it seemed to fit the occasion!)

Peanut Butter Cup Mini's

Plop the peanut butter cups in the center of the cupcake

Ready to decorate??

I used orange and chocolate frosting

and added some candy corn....

then topped with orange and black sprinkles

you could also use some other candies instead of peanut butter cups like snickers, or milk dud!

Tomorrow I'll show you how I decorated and pictures from tonight's party!
