Last weekend my mom wanted me to make some cupcakes for a sweet lady at her church who was celebrating her 80th birthday. So, I wanted to try something new... but just wasn't sure what. Then I ran across a candy display set up in Wal-Mart with some Almond Joy candy bars. Hmmm....
I took my go-to white cake recipe (because it's super EASY), used coconut pudding instead of vanilla, and then added a cup of shredded coconut to the mix. Looking back, I should have added some chopped up almond joys to the batter, but I had planned on putting them on top. Except once chopped up, they looked not so pretty. Luckily I had also bought these little gems...
crushed them up and rolled them on top of the buttercream frosting.
I think they turned out pretty yummy...
*note to self... Not all ovens cook the same.
Just sayin'.
I'm sure you already knew that though. :)
