I started out with a chocolate cupcake. I used the Martha Stewart 1 Bowl Chocolate Cupcake Recipe. It's super simple and easy to clean afterward baking.
I topped the cupcakes with some marshmallow fluff to imitate the marshmallow in the ice cream.
I then added some caramel flavored ice cream on top. I would have made my own, but alas, I have no ice cream maker. In addition, I found this place near my house that sells a scoop of ice cream for a dollar and they're also homemade.
I topped the ice cream with some homemade marshmallow fluff frosting. I took some of the extra marshmallow fluff and made Marshmallow Fluff Frosting. It's super delicious!
To recreate the fish that are IN the ice cream. I piped some melted chocolate onto some parchment paper in the shape of fish. When they set, they made the perfect topping to the cupcake.
I had a super fun time making, creating, and eating all these ice cream cupcakes.
ps. feel free to look at my other creations that I didn't end up entering.
Those look awesome! That marshmallow frosting sounds so good.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I love phish food ice cream. The marshmallow fluff inside plus the marshmallow frosting totally puts this over the top for me.
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine the mess I'd make eating these--that's always a sign of an awesome dessert! I love the fishies on top--they're such a cute touch. Good luck!
