Twilight Cupcakes!


So yummy!!! We are having a Twilight DVD party tonight at a friends house and I decided to make a Twilight inspired cupcake. It's a red velvet cupcake, with a cheesecake coconut/choc chip center - the red and white looks great together, and I've decorated them with quotes from the book, which I found here. I think they turned out so good!

Ingredients:
  • 1 pkg - Duncan Hines® Moist Deluxe® Red Velvet Cake Mix
  • 1 (8 oz) pkg cream cheese
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup flaked coconut
  • 1 tub Duncan Hines® Creamy Home-Style Cream Cheese Frosting

Baking Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease muffin pans or line with paper baking cups.
  2. Prepare batter according to package directions.
  3. Spoon batter into lined muffin cups. In small bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar and egg; mix until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips and coconut.
  4. Spoon about 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture onto batter of each cupcake.
  5. Bake 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool cupcakes following package directions. Spread cupcakes with frosting. Throw the diet out of the window.

    Makes about 24 cupcakes.

I'm coming over from Mormon Mommy Blogs, asking for your help. I am in the running for a round trip airfare paid ticket to Connecticut, to meet a friend I became acquainted with through blogging. She is a super fun person and is holding this contest. I entered a funny story titled "Grapejuice Floaties, Now Marry Me." The person whose story receives the most votes will win a trip to meet this generous lady, whom I'm hoping to meet. The voting ends Sunday evening. I am ahead for now but there is a story coming up from behind out of nowhere and I would so, so, appreciate your help. Her blog is www.becausemomsaidso.blogspot.com and the voting is on the sidebar on the right. "Grapejuice, Floaties" Just go there and cast a vote for me, please. Thanks so much-you're awesome! ♥♥
