Cupcake Tuesday~Snickers Cupcakes
Welcome to Cupcake Tuesday! If you are new here, grab a cup of tea or a glass of milk and enjoy a cupcake!
I’m very excited today, because I have a guest! And not just any guest, a very special one! Brittney has been part of our family for a little more than a year and a half! She is dating my son Nick, and we are just thrilled to have her as part of our family. I love her like a daughter.
I will let her tell you how they baked these amazing cupcakes!
My name is Brittney and I am dating Hoosier Momma’s middle son. One Sunday, my father requested Snickers cupcakes. He has had Hoosier Momma’s Butterfinger cupcakes and was wondering if it was possible to make a Snickers cupcake. Therefore Nick (Hoosier Momma’s son) and I, experimented and found a way to make these cupcakes. I hope you enjoy my recipe for Snickers cupcakes.
We started with a box of white cake mix. We followed the directions that can be found on the back of any box of store bought cake mix. Next, we separated the cake mix into the cupcake pan. After the batter is poured into the pan, take the mini snickers (unwrapped of course) and push them down to the middle of the batter. Bake, following the directions on the box. After the cupcakes are cooked and cooled, we frosted them, using canned frosting. After all the cupcakes had been frosted, we drizzled the cupcakes with caramel and sprinkled them with cut up snickers. After all this has been done, the cupcakes are ready to be served.
Ingredients:
· One box of white cake mix
· Mini Snickers bars
· Frosting
· Caramel
Yum! Didn’t they do a great job? I think I’ll have them bake more often 🙂

You guys are brave souls for actually coming up with your own recipe! I would’ve scoured the internet until I came up with one. Actually, here’s a recipe from the same article feature in Food Network magazine I used to make my Reese’s.
