Superbowl Stuffed Brownie Cupcakes

Posted by Jennifer Ashley at 5:12 PM





This weekend, I fell off the "eating healthy" wagon. Well, when I say "fell off", I really mean "thrown off and got trampled by a herd of pregnant bison. And this is part of the reason. For the superbowl, I (with the help of my friends, Allison and Jen) made stuffed brownie cupcakes. What were they stuffed with? Reese's, Twix, York Peppermint Patties, and COOKIE DOUGH! Yum Yum Yum!

Ingredients
-To make this simple, I just used a box mix for Fudge Brownies and made it per the direcgtions for the "fudge-like" texture (I like fudge)
-Mini Reese's
-Mini Twix
-York Peppermint Patties
-Roll of chocolate chip cookie dough

Chocolate Ganache Icing
-1 bar of your favorite chocolate
-1/2 cup heavy cream

Directions
1) Mix up the brownie batter
2) Fill the cupcake tins up 1/3 of the way
3) Place your desired filling on top of the batter
4) Fill the cupcake tins up another 1/3 (batter should now be 2/3 of the way up the side)
5) Continue until you run out of batter
6) Bake at 350 for about 13 minutes (check on them, oven times vary)
7) Frost with ganache and use extra candy to sprinkle over the top of the cupcakes (to remember what's inside)

Directions for Ganache
***I am a college student and did not "scald" the cream like you are supposed to
1) Crush the chocolate into a bowl
2) Stick the cream in the microwave for 1 minute
3) Pour hot cream over the chocolate and let sit for a few minutes
4) Whisk the cream and chocolate together until there are no "pieces" of chocolate left and it is smooth
