You should have come from: Ashley - http://thebloghopprincess.blogspot.com I'm so glad you're here now, so check out my project and what I cooked up for you!

We love brownies at our house so I decided that I wanted to make mini brownie "cupcakes"
here is the picture of the indredients:

This is something that is "homemade" with ingredients you might have on hand.  I used a brownie mix following the directions on it.  I also use my secret ingredient " 2 Tablespoons of Hershey's syrup (or any store brand chocolate syrup) added to the brownie mix.
Next I grease the mini cupcake tin and fill them about 3/4 full.  Bake them at 325 for about 7 minutes, check them and then about 3-5 more minutes depending on how fast your oven cooks.
I cool them on a rack with waxed paper:

After they cool I use a piping bag with a tip (if you don't have this you can use a ziplock bagie and cut the corner off)  swirl on the frosting and add my sprinkles.

My kids LOVE these!!

Here is a picture of a cupcake card I made that would be great to giveaway with these yummy brownie bites!

My Cricut Craft Room Scrapbook Friday Sept. 21st-- Cute Critters

 

 

 

Welcome back to another Scrapbook Friday!  I love these days!!  I am trying so hard to get my 3 kids' scrapbooks up to date!!  So today I decided to scrap Halloween 2008... I know I know it is 2012.  I am WAY behind!

I used Hello Kitty Greetings, Doodle Charms, and 3 Birds on Parade Cricut Cartridges for today's scrapbook page.  I love Halloween!  I created the spider from Doodle Charms and my Gypsy.  I used the Hide feature to hide the mouth and eyes so I could add google eyes and a stickles smile.  Now my other two cuts I used were from a swap that I was in. They did not have the name of the person who created them or I would post that.  The Bat is from Hello Kitty Greetings and the Dracula Bird is from 3 Birds on Parade.  Both are super cute!!

If you are new to my blog I love simple layouts! I'm not saying that I wouldn't make something fancy or WOW! I just like to make sure I can add lots of pictures to my pages.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!  Don't forget to check out the other great Cute Critter scrapbook pages at http://mycricutcraftroom.blogspot.com
