Rice Crispy Treat Jack'o'Lantern!In the spirit of halloween, we have returned, and with a fun, original treat!<br />
<br />
We keep seeing little rice crispy treat pumpkins everywhere, with frosting faces, etc. And of course, we LOVE, but wanted to put our own spin on it :)<br />
<br />
Soooo, we delved deep into our imaginations and thought of doing an ACTUAL jack o lantern, but...edible :)<br />
<br />
So, here we go.<br />
<br />
NOTE: the candle should be used for photo op's only. Otherwise...you will have a fire :D<br />
<br />
What you'll need/the plan :)<br />

Creating your 'pumpkin' and hollowing it out (carefully)<br />
It's important to wait for it to cool and semi-solidify<a href="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART3-9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="268" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART3-9.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
After [again, CAREFULLY :)] carving your jack's face, also cut a whole in the bottom, to insert the tea light in to. It's important to get the candle as far from the 'top' as possible.<br />

"Surviving and Thriving as a Mom of Three" <br />
<br />
This mama is awesome! GREAT blog that's a must-read. We're going to be making her <a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.com/2011/08/27/one-pot-spaghetti/">one pot spaghetti</a> :)<br />
<br />
Mk from this moment on- it's her, not me :D <br />
<br />
I tweeted a few days ago that I would be sharing this recipe, and here it is, courtesy of my grandmother.<br />
First, the cake ingredients:<br />
<ul>
<li>2/3 cup butter</li>
<li>1 cup sugar</li>
<li>1/2 cup brown sugar</li>
<li>2 eggs</li>
<li>2 cups flour</li>
<li>1 tsp baking powder</li>
<li>1 tsp baking soda</li>
<li>1 tsp cinnamon</li>
<li>1 cup buttermilk</li>
<li>1 tsp vanilla</li>
</ul>
<div>
Topping ingredients:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>1/2 cup brown sugar</li>
<li>1 tsp cinnamon</li>
<li>chopped nuts (optional, I don’t use these)</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
Here is what you’ll need:</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0001.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-398" height="265px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0001.jpg?w=500&h=332" title="coffeecake_0001" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
First, blend the butter and sugar well.</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0005.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-401" height="265px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0005.jpg?w=500&h=332" title="coffeecake_0005" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
Then grab your eggs. Mine are farm fresh from my best friend’s chickens. Aren’t I lucky? :)</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0007_edited-1.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-427" height="344px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0007_edited-1.jpg?w=500&h=430" title="coffeecake_0007_edited-1" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
Throw a couple in and mix til your heart’s content:</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0008.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-404" height="265px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0008.jpg?w=500&h=332" title="coffeecake_0008" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
Pour yourself a cup of rich, thick buttermilk:</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0011_edited-2.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-408" height="315px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0011_edited-2.jpg?w=500&h=394" title="coffeecake_0011_edited-2" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
Whisk together your dry ingredients.</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0004.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-410" height="265px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0004.jpg?w=500&h=332" title="coffeecake_0004" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
Then, add your buttermilk alternately with your dry ingredients.</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0013.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-412" height="265px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0013.jpg?w=500&h=332" title="coffeecake_0013" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
When you’re done, you should have a thick, fluffy batter. You’ll need a spatula to get all this creamy deliciousness into your baking pan. No drippiness here, it’s not a cake, it’s coffeecake! Get all you can out of the bowl, and get it into a 13 x 9 baking pan. Then, grab your topping ingredients:</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0017_edited-1.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-417" height="372px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0017_edited-1.jpg?w=500&h=465" title="coffeecake_0017_edited-1" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
Mix well and sprinkle all over your batter:</div>
<div>
<a href="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0019_edited-1.jpg"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-418" height="209px" src="http://grumpysleepyandbashful.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/coffeecake_0019_edited-1.jpg?w=500&h=262" title="coffeecake_0019_edited-1" width="400px" /></a></div>
<div>
At this point, you can cover and refrigerate overnight. It only gets better, as the brown sugar melts into the batter. Yummmm . . . . .</div>
Whenever you decide to bake it (if you just can’t wait until the morning), set your oven to 350 degrees, and bake for 30-35 minutes. I use a glass baking pan, so I set my oven to 325. When I do this, it takes a little longer to bake, possibly 40 minutes. Totally worth the wait. Let me tell you.<br />
<div>
This is a family favorite, and it is perfect for Christmas mornings, when you just want to pop something in the oven. It goes fantastically with scrambled eggs, fruit, and of course, coffee! Enjoy!</div>
Oh, and if you make some, would you invite me over? I haven’t eaten coffeecake that <em>I didn’t make</em> in about 20 years.foodthatdoesntsuckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06520883298769401840noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6918774739153989736.post-15468633467216510212011-08-28T17:37:00.000-07:002011-08-28T17:37:38.907-07:0030 Second dessert-- cereal & ice cream!SO, sorry i've been MIA for awhile, <br />
but YAY for over 700 facebook shares! <br />
You guys are awesome :D <br />
Anyways, just a quick little post on a twist of one of my favorite<br />
breakfasts? snacks? desserts? <br />
We'll go with calling it a dessert for now ;) <br />
<br />
I'm calling it the 30 second dessert-- cos, that's literally how long it took me to make :D <br />
The photos are pretty self explanatory, and i'm sure you can do it with any cereal (and any type of ice cream), but frosted flakes have been my favorite for 22 years :D <br />
It's the only way i really like ice cream! <br />
<br />

Simple, easy, aweeesome fun way to get your kiddo to love lunch time :) <br />
<br />
What you'll need-- sandwich makings, and a skewer! <br />
We bought 'mini bread' [wheat and french], cheddar cheese, cherry tomatoes and deli turkey. <br />
We also trimmed our 12" skewer down by about 4-5 inches. <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="266px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART1-8.jpg?t=1313264999" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
Next, Carter just started layering things on, using the tomato as a 'base'. <br />

<br />
Viola! All done! He dipped it in ranch and loved it :D <br />

So first off, we can not take credit for this awesome, mouth-watering idea. <br />
We were actually sent the photo by another awesome mama & after seeing it..just had to do...and after doing it..just had to share it :) <br />
<br />
To see where we got it from and check out other awesome recipes, visit <a href="http://gingerbreadbagels.com/2011/08/05/butterfinger-chocolate-covered-strawberries/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=butterfinger-chocolate-covered-strawberries">Gingerbread Bagels</a> :) <br />
<br />
Mk, here we go! <br />
<br />
Okay, what you'll need: Strawberries, butterfingers, chocolate chips, and...we added a banana :) <br />
Melt your chocolate chips in the microwave or on the stove, and while that's going, crush up your butterfingers. <br />
Gingerbread Bagels used a food processor...we don't have one...so i used a hammer 8)<br />
Okay, everything's ready. <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="267px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART1-5.jpg?t=1312838142" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
Next, dip your fruit in the chocolate, and then roll it in the crushed butterfinger. <br />
I used toothpicks. <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART2-5.jpg?t=1312838289" xloc="52" yloc="178" /><br />
<br />
Mmmm..good. let it set [you can put it in the fridge to speed up the process] <br />

<br />
What you'll need: Apples, popsicle sticks or chop sticks. Candy for a "face", caramel soft candies, and milk.<br />
Cut the stem off, and stick the stick in :)<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART1-7.jpg?t=1312667210" /><br />
<br />
We didn't use exact measurments for the caramel, <br />
but it came to be about 20+ of the soft caramel candies, and 4 tbs of milk. <br />
This only covered 2 apples. Melt the caramel & milk in the microwave for about 2 1/2 minutes. <br />
<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART2-6.jpg?t=1312667337" /><br />
<br />
For our faces we used mint rings for eyes, raisinets for nose, and twizzlers for the mouths :) <br />

and thanks to my randomly stocked fridge in need of cleaning for making 'em outta biscuits :D <br />
<br />
What you'll need: <br />
Premade biscuit dough, cream cheese, chocolate fudge [optional], powder sugar & vanilla extract.<br />
Soften the cream cheese a bit, and dd the vanilla/sugar just til you like the taste :) [i didn't use exact measurments or anything] <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART1-6.jpg?t=1312572811" /><br />
<br />
Taking your biscuits, grease your pan, then press them in, <br />
making kind of a 'bowl' shape, by pressing it against the edges of your cupcake pan. <br />
<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART2-5.jpg?t=1312572904" style="height: 510px; width: 371px;" /><br />
<br />
Now fill them with your 'cheesecake' mixture. <br />
[ignore the plain chocolate chip ones :P]<br />
Bake as the biscuit can directs, and add that bit of chocolate if you'd like once they are done :)<br />
<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART3-6.jpg?t=1312572983" xloc="52" yloc="178" /><br />
<br />
And there ya have it! <br />
<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART4-4.jpg?t=1312573054" style="height: 510px; width: 353px;" /><br />
ENJOY! <br />
Dont forget to send in your photos of things you've made off of our blog :) <br />
Just updated <a href="http://foodthatdoesntsuckk.blogspot.com/p/your-photos.html">YOUR photos</a> yesterday!foodthatdoesntsuckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06520883298769401840noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6918774739153989736.post-28897951157999138442011-08-04T09:39:00.000-07:002011-08-04T09:42:09.377-07:00Fried powdered sugar treats!Ok, so really...donut holes, but we just did another kinda donuts recently, i had to switch the names up a little :P <br />
<br />
What you'll need: Premade biscuit dough, powdered sugar, vegetable oil, and hot fudge :)<br />
Tear the dough into smaller peices [per large biscuit i made 6] and roll into small balls. <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART1-4.jpg?t=1312475185" /><br />
<br />
Boil your oil. Baracade the kids outta the kitchen. <br />
Set the dough into the pot *carefully* and fry just til it's golden brown. <br />
Set on a paper towel so the excess oil drains off. <br />
<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="267px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART2-4.jpg?t=1312475087" style="visibility: visible;" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
You can use a container with a lid or a zip lock baggie, *kid friendly*<br />
Shake them in the powder while still hot, but once the oil has drained into the paper towel. <br />
Add hot fudge for dipping [cos it's not sweet enough yet, right? ;)]<br />
<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART3-4.jpg?t=1312474884" style="height: 510px; visibility: visible; width: 373px;" /><br />
<br />
There ya have it!<br />

<br />
These were actually Carter-approved :)<br />

<br />
*NOTE: serve immediately. if left out too long, the powder sugar with...'goo-ify' cos of any excess oil. <br />
<br />

You can get your owwwwn, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Cool-Jazz-Guitar-Cube-Tray/dp/B0010EAOZQ">here</a>!! :) <br />
<br />
It's really an ice cube tray- but we decided to make popsicles instead :)<br />
<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="242px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART1-5.jpg?t=1312301743" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
-What you'll need: Your nifty new ice tray :) <br />
And juice of your choice, we picked Sobe orange cream and pina colada. <br />
[We aren't juice drinkers in this house, so the decision was a bit hard] <br />
<br />
-Obviously, you then fill the tray, freeze [hopefully in a freezer less scary looking than my own] and whip out later, or , the next day, like we did. [why am i explaining this process to you???]<br />
<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART2-4.jpg?t=1312301908" style="height: 510px; width: 391px;" /><br />
<br />
The finished product :) <br />

but...seeing this featured on a youtube video, we had to do it.<br />
Cos, yes, we love cake batter...and, we love rice crispy treats. <br />
<strong>How could this go wrong? </strong><br />
<br />
What you'll need/melt up the butter [3 tlbs] with the marshmallows [10 oz of minis] <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/CLOTHES/PART1.jpg?t=1312182714" style="height: 510px; width: 363px;" /><br />
<br />
Oh shoot. <br />
my photos are out of order :( <br />
Okay, you need to switch the steps a bit, just, the first photo, is actually the last :D<br />
You add about 1/4 cup prepared cake powder, and add in some rainbow sprinkles<br />
Then stir in the 6 cups of Rice Crispy cereal. <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="211px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/CLOTHES/PART2.jpg?t=1312182981" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
This next part is optional, but, you should probably do it ;)<br />
Add more sprinkles to the top, just for some more color, <br />
then melt your milk chocolate chips and drizzle it on top. <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="266px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/CLOTHES/PART3.jpg?t=1312183237" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
Let it set, and VIOLA! you're done! <br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/CLOTHES/PART4.jpg?t=1312183385" /><br />
<br />
<br />
To be honest, we couldn't really taste the 'cake' part <strong>[ohhh so THAT'S how it could go wrong],</strong> so maybe add a bit more than what we did from the way we saw it done :D<br />
but either way- how could you go wrong with rice crispy treats!!foodthatdoesntsuckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06520883298769401840noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6918774739153989736.post-76477263733799830802011-07-26T21:16:00.001-07:002011-07-26T21:16:43.023-07:00SLOPPY JOE...cupcakes?So, I saw the pizza cupcakes or whatever you wanna call 'em, <br />
and we wanted to do our own twist on 'em. <br />
<br />
So, we decided to try sloppy joe ones. <br />
annnd they were amazing. <br />
<br />
What you need/prepping the 'muffin/cupcake' part & toppings <br />
<br />

This time, homemade.Well..."campmade" :) <br />
<br />
Sorry we haven't updated in a bit. <br />
I was even going to take a break, to get my life sorted out a bit, <br />
but, i just couldn't stay away :) <br />
<br />
So, revisiting <a href="http://foodthatdoesntsuckk.blogspot.com/2011/05/camping-make-doughnuts.html">camping donuts</a>, we now made them from scratch...kinda :) <br />
We forgot to add sugar, so hey-- remember sugar :) <br />
<br />
Not gonna lie, using the premade biscuit dough is yummier, but, this was great too! <br />
<br />

They look like we squished little smurfs to make these.<br />
[dont worry kids, no smurfs were really harmed in the making of these] <br />

<br />

<img src="http://a4.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/006/Purple/88/4d/ac/mzl.ixyrglyj.320x480-75.jpg" /> <br />
<br />
What you need [ignore the red]<br />
Make sure your pancake batter is of a medium thick consistency but with NO bumps! <br />
It'll clog the 'batter-squirter' and make you lose your miiinnnd!<br />
<img height="177px" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART1-4.jpg" width="400px" /> <br />
<br />
How to make 'em on the..skillet? <br />
Maybe you can make your ham more...attractive ;)<br />

<br />
This looks a bit odd, huh? It's cos when i was looking through photos, i accidently deleted step two..while i was aleady at step three, and i er, wasn't gonna spoon out the second layer of ice cream, soooo i just added a fourth one to show you how to do it :D<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="267px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PT2-1.jpg?t=1310745526" width="400px" /><br />

<img height="289px" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/AHVANILLA.jpg" width="400px" /><br />
YEAH. <br />
<br />
So, today, i made her a frosting-less smash cake, that she, er, she didn't smash. <br />
But you'll see that at the end :D<br />
<br />
So, if you ever need to make a frosting'less cake that looks like a pizza, read on! <br />
[The white stuff, is cream cheese, sorry that isn't pictured better]<br />
<br />
What you'll need<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="266px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PT1.jpg?t=1310610947" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
Spread on the cream cheese and whatever red jam you like :) <br />
[it's the 'sauce']<br />
<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PT2.jpg?t=1310610711" style="height: 510px; visibility: visible; width: 376px;" /><br />
<br />
White chocolate [that DOESNT have 'cookies' in it] + grater = <br />
the most expensive "cheese" you'll ever put on a pizza :P <br />
<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="640px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PT3.jpg?t=1310610633" style="visibility: visible;" width="358px" /><br />
<br />
For the pepperoni you take a red fruit roll up and cut it into circles<br />
[easier said than done] <br />
<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PT4.jpg?t=1310610555" style="height: 510px; visibility: visible; width: 373px;" /><br />

I had a bit of a cookie cup fail, but, yeah :D <br />
<br />
Read on :D <br />
<br />
What you'll need<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="266px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART1-3.jpg?t=1310362446" width="400px" /><br />
<br />

<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="266px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART2-2.jpg?t=1310362521" style="visibility: visible;" width="400px" /><br />
<br />

<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART2-1.jpg?t=1309762001" style="height: 510px; width: 365px;" xloc="20" yloc="141" /><br />
<br />
Once they cooled, you add peanut butter to half of them, or however many you want, <br />
then melted chocolate over the top. To the other ones, you fill the insides with the melted<br />
chocolate, then sprinkle the crushed hazlenut [or peanuts, cashews, etc] on top.<br />
<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="270px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART3-3.jpg?t=1310362596" style="visibility: visible;" width="400px" /><br />
<br />
Put it in the fridge to set, and you get...<br />
<img alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" height="400px" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/PART4-2.jpg?t=1310362667" style="visibility: visible;" width="266px" /><br />
<br />
They weren't as "cute" as they could've been, <br />
cos of the cookie cup fail, <br />
BUT they were just as amazingly tasty as ever! <br />

You do use a muffin tin though! <br />
<br />
Thanks a million to all the brainstorming with AZ! <br />
<br />
So, they're basically flour tortialla soft tacos, in the shape of muffins! :D <br />
<br />
What you'll need/how to make the tortilla 'muffin' bases<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART1-1.jpg?t=1310175841" /><br />
<br />
Add pre-made taco meat, then beans, then cheese<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART2-1.jpg?t=1310175919" /><br />
<br />
BROIL, dont bake..just keep an eye on it til the cheese is nice and melted. <br />
Then add whatever you want! we did sour cream, lettuce, and tomatoes/chilis<br />
<img _prototypeuid="11" alt="" class="media" galleryimg="no" id="fullSizedImage" src="http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/i441/Bug_and_Bear/Food%20BLOG/PART3-1.jpg?t=1310176010" /><br />
