Boo Berry Cupcakes

I didn't want to leave Boo Berry out! So here's a cupcake recipe with the blue guy :)



1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil
1 cup half & half cream ( milk or cream may also be substituted)
3 1/2 tsp baking powder
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups Boo Berry cereal, crushed  (sift out the marshmallows and put them aside to decorate later)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, oil, sugar, cream, and vanilla all together until well blended.

         

                                              
                          Then add in the baking powder and flour.

                                                  
                             Mix in the crushed Boo Berry cereal.

                         Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full. Batter will be a strange zombie color :P

Bake for 20-22 minutes, until the cupcakes feel slightly firm to the touch.  They should look like this.
Let them cool completely, then frost.



                        Boo Berry Frosting

6 cups powdered sugar
1 stick butter, room temperature
10-12 tbs milk or cream
1 tsp vanilla
blue food coloring (optional)


   Beat butter well until smooth. Add vanilla, then sugar, alternating with the milk until it's the desired consistency. Beat high for 2 minutes.

 Then, if desired, add a few drops of blue food coloring. I frosted half of my cupcakes when the frosting was still white, then I frosted the other half blue.

  Decorate as you wish, I used the marshmallows that came with the cereal to decorate, as well as some Halloween sprinkles that I had.

                                                      Enjoy!!!!!
