This fast and easy recipe from The Girl Who Ate Everything uses wonton wrappers instead of traditional taco shells or tortilla chips. They are the perfect size for muffin tins and an easy way…

Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcakes
What’s better than a peanut butter cup? Besides not much of anything, it would be these cupcakes from Your Cup of Cake which are sort of like peanut butter cups in cupcake form.

Blueberry Cream Cheese Cupcakes
I absolutely love blueberries and wish the season lasted longer than it does. Seems like by the time I realize it is blueberry season it is already over. For some reason, I think fresh blueberries taste even better when in a cake or muffin. This recipe from Pastry Affair adds a cream cheese frosting to add…
Root Beer Float Cupcakes
I do believe summer has arrived! Well, in most parts of the US anyway. I vaguely recall seeing snow, horrible amounts of snow, blanketing certain northern parts of the country. No thank you. But today we are going to believe it is summer and have a root beer float. Oh yes, in a cupcake! Chocolatey…

Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cupcakes
Mmm…who’s ready for fresh raspberries? Ok, so the recipe doesn’t call for fresh raspberries but it still reminded me of summer which will be here before you know it!

Triple Threat Cupcakes
We all have a comfort food we turn to when having a less than good day. Like today. Now you would think I would just whip up a batch of cupcakes on the fly, but I didn’t have the right ingredients in the pantry. Luckily, I DID have a brownie mix and brownies tend to…
Blueberry Cupcakes!
I grew up in “farm country” so we spent a good bit of the summer in our garden or picking fresh fruit. We picked blueberries, sour cherries, and wild raspberries which my mom would then freeze to use in pies for the rest of the year. While picking fruit seemed like such a chore, it…
Snickers Cupcakes
Chocolate….peanuts….caramel. I think those are all food groups, right? Candy bars and cupcakes are a perfect combination. While this recipe from My Baking Addiction uses frozen Snickers, you can substitute your favorite miniature frozen candy bars. Or here’s an idea. Buy a bag of the assorted miniature candy bars and bake up a batch of cupcakes…
