10 Different Ways to Revamp Boxed Brownies

Okay, who doesn't love good boxed brownies!? I recently just made some boxed brownies because we needed to make something for a 4th of July party.

Frosting Cupcakes Tips

Frosting cupcakes is just about my favorite part of cupcakes altogether. Who didn't just lick the frosting off as a kid? Hello me. ANYWAYS. There are many tips to frost the perfect cupcake so let's dive right into them. First off, you must decide how you are going to frost your cupcake.

If you fill a small one too full, frosting will explode out the top, and there will be a HUGE mess. Secondly, you must have the right tips for the bags if you decide to use them. There are many tips for many different things that you want to do with decorating. Here is my little reference in a picture that I use A LOT. It shows you the many different tips and what the frosting will look like when you use them.
