Guest Post {A Pumpkin and a Princess}

Hi Southern Lovely readers I'm Crystal from A Pumpkin & A Princess. Lindsay is one of my best bloggy friends and I'm thrilled to be here today sharing my all time favorite post. On my blog you'll find craft and DIY project tutorials, creative recipes, and fun activities to do with kids.

You'll also find that I have a huge sweet tooth so I'm constantly baking and creating new desserts. One of my favorites is ice cream cupcakes. I made these earlier this year, right before St. Patrick's Day and they were a huge hit in our household! We have since experimented with different cake and ice cream combos. My favorite is chocolate cake with Oreo ice cream, but Rocky Road is a close second. ;)
To make your own you will need your favorite cake mix, ice cream, and cupcake liners.
I found using one tablespoon of batter worked the best. If you like more cake than ice cream, increase the batter by a teaspoon. Bake for about 10-12 minutess, depending on your oven settings. Once the cupcakes have cooled, press softened ice cream on top and freeze until completely hardened. You can add frosting or whipped topping or leave them plain which are just as great.

Thanks for letting me share my recipe with you. I would love for you to stop by A Pumpkin & A Princess sometime and say hi. 


Thanks for having me Lindsay!
