One of our favorite things to do with our grandchildren is bake treats. It’s fun quality time and children love to help out in the kitchen. Especially our 5-year old grand daughter.
Last week we joined forces with Betty Crocker and took baking cupcakes to the next level with the new Fun da-middles. We had a delightful time together mixing and pouring and of course … licking the spoon. Fact of the matter is, if you look closely you might even see a bit of cupcake batter on Kennedy’s grinning face!
Fun da-middles are delicious cupcakes with a cream filling. Just like those chocolate cupcakes you can find at the corner market … only better. These are fresh with ingredients right out of your cupboard. Kennedy poured everything in the bowl and I turned the mixer on.
We spooned batter into the adorable paper baking cups which Kennedy already had prepared. Spooned on a bit of the creamy filling and topped them with more batter. Easy Peasy!
Bake … Cool … Voila! Delicious cream filled cupcake fresh from your kitchen!
There’s so much you can do with Fun da-middles just by adding a bit of flavor or food coloring to the creamy filling. Like orange for Halloween!! Betty Crocker also made a Fun da-middle How-To Video that you can watch on their You Tube channel.
And … we have a wicked fun GIVEAWAY!
