Perfectly Chocolate Cupcakes

 Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper cupcakes liners. 



In a large bowl combine all of these dry ingredients together: 1 cup of all purpose flour with 1 cup of sugar. Then add 3- 1/4 tsps of baking powder & 3 1/4 tsps baking soda. Then add 1/2 tsp of salt. Stir dry ingredients then add one egg, then add 1/2 cup of 2% milk now add 1/4 cup vegetable oil, then add 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Last step add 1/2 cup of boiling water to the batter stirring as you add it. Now wait ten minutes, letting the batter sit for this time makes the cupcakes fluffier and more moist. Pour the batter in muffin tin's and bake at 350 degree oven for 22 minutes rotating the muffin tin once halfway through cooking time using oven mitts. Then once their done baking let them cool for twenty minutes. Then frost with store bought frosting.... to make them more festive for Halloween add 5 drops of red food coloring and five drop of yellow food coloring and mix well and frost them with orange frosting.

Homemade Hot Chocolate

Here's a delicious easy homemade recipe that I make during fall and winter months.


Take 2 tablespoons of hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder,  mix with 2 tablespoons of regular granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of original coffee creamer mix all together. Then divide hot cocoa mix between two mugs,  add 6-8 oz of hot water to each mug. Add two squirts of chocolate syrup and then top off with Reddi whip. Also if you want to make more of this recipe just double the ingredients above. Also tell me your variations of hot chocolate. As always thanks for looking at my blog. See you next time! Stay tuned for my Halloween cupcakes.

Here's some variations:

Add a peppermint candy cane to it to make it peppermint hot chocolate

Or add a dash of cinnamon to make cinnamon hot cocoa

Or a handful of mini marsh mellows


Also you can take a ghost peep and stick it on a pretzel rod and you have spooky hot chocolate!

Or to make festive for December you can take a peppermint star peep or a Christmas tree peep, stick it on a candy cane and you have Christmas themed hot chocolate.



All Purpose product and more

Here's an all-purpose product that serves more than one purpose. Take a spray bottle and fill with original Listerine. One of the purposes is it will disinfect wooden surfaces, sinks and counters. Another purpose is to spray on your indoor plants to keep bugs off  of them and keep them healthy. If you spray the leaves of your indoor plant, it will have them looking clean and pretty.
