NOBODY had better lay a finger on my...

BUTTERFINGER!

Yep. You guessed it, I made Butterfinger cupcakes. DEElishussss!!
Boyf ate two of them before I even finished frosting them all!

I apologize for having to use my camera on my phone. My real camera is totes deadsville right now, so BOO on that.

I used a Devil's food cake mix for the cake...put some crushed up Butterfinger chunks inside the cake and baked 'em up. Are those MONKEY cupcake liners, you ask? Yes. Yes they are.

The FROSTING is where the amazingness started to happen:

Two sticks of butter
4 cups powdered sugar
6 fun size Butterfinger candy bars
two tablespoons of peanut butter
a sploosh of milk

I creamed the butter and added the butterfinger bits that I had already broken up, and continued to whip in my mixer. I then added the sugar, and since it was all looking a bit dry I whacked in about two tablespoons of peanut butter and splooshed in about 1/4 cup of milk. PERFECTION.

The dogs could have cared less about my baking, as they were glued to the window staring at the feral cat standing outside of our fence. Silly cat.

I took Char to a training seminar last weekend, happened to pop over to the site to check out other dog training stuff, and there we were, featured on the dog trainers blog! How FUN! Charley did a good job! Check out the post below:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YODA!!!!

OK. So, for the last ten years or so, I have tortured my sister with a simple, silly ongoing joke. I started telling my sister that "she looked like Yoda" on a rainy day, locked in the sun room at my grandmother's house, watching...you guessed it! Return of the Jedi!!

It seemed only fitting that when she made a request for a birthday baked good, I delivered a lovely Yoda cookie. My only regret is that I didn't make more...we were at my parent's house, and it was HOT! So hot that you can see poor Yoda sweating in his frosting face! It was also SO hot that Charley just slept right through the baking!!

**my sister is an amazing, beautiful lady- she of course, looks nothing like Yoda. She is a babe!

I used a new recipe this time that, well, just isn't worth sharing. The best thing I discovered was the neon food coloring gels that provided Yoda with his killer green skin!
