Corn on the Cob Cupcakes

Here’s a fun way to decorate your cupcakes for your summer picnics.  Make Corn on the Cob Cupcakes!  Haha – no corn involved – just jelly beans.  Out of a small bag of mixed jelly beans, there were only enough yellow beans to make one of these cupcakes, so I’m not sure where you can find only yellow jelly beans, but good luck!!  We found the corn skewers at Michael’s for…

Cheesecake Bites

February 13, 2013

We love cheesecake.  Why not take this delicious dessert and make it bite-size?  Very easy to make.  Be sure to give yourself some time to bake and then let sit in the fridge.  We sort of modified our other recipe to make these.  You’ll need a mini muffin tin if you want to make these itty bitty… BTW – this recipe is great for a normal sized cheesecake, too!  Just use…
