Time to Catch up!!!

I have been so busy lately that I have to get caught up on my blogging, when I started this, I thought O.K. once a week I will sit down and blog...........At the end of the year, I had over 100 posts, I could not believe it but I have a feeling with my school schedule and work, once a week is all it is going to be for a while.

I did take some time out and do some relaxing during Super Bowl Sunday.............All work and no play makes me a very dull person. So we gathered with all the neighborhood and had a great get together with lots of food and yes I supplied the cupcakes.

Since this was an adult event, (I still can't believe we had no children there.) I decided to go with more of an adult type cupcake.

What I ended up with is something, I had never really thought of doing before.

These are what I call Black Russian mini cupcake shots and yes they are made with Vodka and Kaluha............I combine a simple yellow cake recipe and the following recipe and this is what came out.............I have to admit, I do not drink...........but have found I eat my liquor..........Hmmm, I wonder what that says about me!!!!!!

Black Russian Cupcakes

Yellow cake recipe, any simple one will do or use a box mix.

1 6-0z chocolate instant pudding

1/2 cup sugar

1 cup vegetable oil

4 eggs

1/4 cup Vodka 1/4 cup Kahlua

3/4 cup water

Combine yellow cake batter with pudding mix, sugar, oil, eggs, Vodka, and Kahlua

Add the water in a large bowl. Mix at low speed for about 1 min, then mix for about 4 min on medium.

Bake at 350 degrees in oven for about 12 to 15 minutes.

Cool cupcakes and frost with Whipped cream and 1/4 cup sugar, adding 1/4 cup Kahlua.

"Enjoy!"
