Gimme Gimme S'more!

Oh! What's one goodie goodness that's crunchy on the outside and gooey and chewy in the inside? S'more!

S'more makes a great holiday treat! It's a delightful treat that's simple and perfect for a comfort dessert!
Hmmm, warm gooey center and a crunchy outter layer! It makes a great little gift to bring to work as well as a party!
Although I must say, it's super hard to wrap this baby up without the bag being sticky! Sooo, I have turned it into a cupcake!
A s'more is not a s'more without it's components! A crunchy graham cracker outter layer!
Gooey chocolate center!
Still chocolatey and moist!
Last but not least, top it off with sticky gooey marshmallow meringue frosting!
Can serve it the way it is.
Or semi-burnt if you like!

This is how it looks like in the inside!
Stay Warm & Happy Holidays!

Mini Vanilla & Green Tea Cupcakes

The other night I made some mini vanilla cupcakes and green tea cupcakes with vanilla buttercream frosting and green tea buttercream frosting. the frosting was a little loose since I forgot to let my butter chill down to room temperature.

I love mini food figures and models, same for real food of course! They are too cute!

The green of the cupcake so matches the pink cupcake paper haha.
