Recently I made some
rainbow cupcakes for a family get together and made
marshmallow buttercream for the top (my favourite). I'm always really careful with how much frosting I pipe onto my cupcakes, as I don't want to run out, but I always seem to end up with leftovers (I'm too careful). I didn't have time to eat the leftovers with a spoon (we were off to an event) so I left the buttercream in the fridge with the idea that I would do something fun with it when I got home.

| Leftover Marshmallow Buttercream |

| I shaped it into discs and let them firm up in the fridge |
 |
| Then I dipped them into melted dark chocolate chips |
 |
| My leftover buttercream was enough for nine chocolates |
 |
| Mmmmmmm....chocolates on a fancy plate |
 |
| They were really, really, good. |
They were so good that at some point I might even make up some marshmallow buttercream just for chocolate making. I think they would make a great gift.

I love this. Once I get the house back in order, I'll have to come back and do these. SOOO YUMMY LOOKING.
ReplyDeletePS: Tim just came home from lunch and surprised me with the rest of the day off. Hot dog.
These are so yummy! My mom suggested I add colour or nuts to them if I do them again - make them even more fun. I am definitely doing these again. Candy making made easy.
