Sweet Treats!

I found the cutest heart shaped cupcakes a few weeks ago while I was browsing around the internet looking for Valentine's Day ideas! They were cute, and they didn't require me to buy a special pan either....all I needed was some marbles.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
To make SUPER cute heart shaped cupcakes:
Line your muffin tins with paper cupcake holders.
Mix up your favorite cake batter.
Pour the batter into the liner making sure to only fill them up halfway. Then slide a marble between the liner and the muffin tin on one side. I found that it is best to only push the marble down a little bit, not all the way to the bottom of the cup.
Bake the cupcakes as directed.
Let them cool a little bit, then remove them from the muffin pan and cool completely.
Decorate the SUPER cute heart shaped cupcakes with lots of pink, red, and white sprinkles!
Then take lots of pictures because you are so proud of how cute they turned out!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
I also made yummy Rice Krispy Treats using strawberry flavored {and heart shaped} marshmallows. Then I cut them out with my big heart shaped cookie cutter. They turned out so cute and even had a little bit of pink tint!
These would be even better with a little bit of chocolate drizzled on top...but I was trying not to eat ever single sweet treat that I made!

What kind of yummy treats are making for Valentine's Day?

Not Me! Monday


Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
********************************

I did NOT completely abandon my diet last week. I did NOT get so caught up in baking various cookies and other Valentine's treats that I ended up gaining back almost 3 of the 10 pounds that I lost in January. I have much better will power than that, and I would NEVER blow a month of hard work on a few cookies, cupcakes, and Rice Krispy treats!

I did NOT get just a little sad when the Stained Glass cookies that I worked so hard on didn't turn out the way I had been picturing in my head. I would NEVER get upset over something as silly as cookies...even if they were supposed to be really cute teacher's gifts!

I did NOT get over my sadness quickly, because my other cookies turned out SUPER cute!

I do NOT think that I need to quit baking and start crafting....I don't think I can gain any weight from working with scrapbook paper and my new Cricut:)

I am NOT so glad that at least a few of you {well actually 8} got my {probably not as funny as I thought it was} title of THIS blog post! I did NOT decided that because you all are such great blog followers, that I would use random.org to pick one of the lucky 8 who actually understand my sense of humor! Myya was NOT the winner....so Myya...don't send me your address {but really do, so I can send you a little happy in the mail}!
