Captain Crunch Cupcakes Recipe 425

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Line 24 muffin tins with baking cups and set aside. Using a food processor or a large Ziploc bag and rolling pin, crush 2 cups of the cereal very finely (to a cornmeal consistency). In the bowl of a mixer, add the cake mix, crushed cereal, buttermilk, eggs, and oil. Beat on low speed about one minute, stopping to scrape down sides of the bowl. Increase speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more. Fold other 2 cups on uncrushed cereal into the batter. Fill liners 2/3 full and bake for 12-15 minutes or until tops spring back when lightly touched. Allow to cool on cooling racks. To Make Frosting: 2 sticks butter, at room temperature (I used salted) 1 cup peanut butter 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/4 cup milk 4 cups powdered sugar 7 oz jar marshmallow creme In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the 2 sticks of butter, peanut butter, milk, and vanilla on medium low speed until well blended. Slowly add powdered sugar and beat on low until just barely blended. Increase speed until medium and beat for about 2 minutes, until light and fluffy. Fold in Marshmallow Creme, not fully combining to allow for a swirl of marshmallow throughout. Frost cupcakes generously and add a sprinkle of cereal to the top.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line cups with paper liners.
• Combine butter and sugar in a bowl. Beat using an electric mixer until creamy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, and beat well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract. Stir flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Alternate adding flour mixture and all the milk in small amounts, mixing well after each addition.
• Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 20 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Combine cream cheese and butter in a bowl. Beat using an electric mixer until creamy. Add confectioners' sugar 2 tablespoons at a time and mix. Add vanilla extract after 1/2 the confectioners' sugar has been incorporated.
• Frost each cooled cupcake with a layer of cream cheese frosting. Place 2 chocolate chips for eyes, 1 red M&M® candy for the nose, and 1 gummy worm for the mouth on each cupcake. Place 2 rows of orange M&M's® on top to make the hair.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F (400°F for dark or nonstick pan). Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups.
• In medium bowl, stir coffee cake mix, water, oil and eggs with spoon just until blended (batter may be lumpy). Divide batter evenly among muffin cups (about 3 tablespoons each). Sprinkle Streusel over batter in each cup; press lightly.
• Bake 15 to 19 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on cooling rack 5 minutes. Carefully remove from pan, and place on cooling rack. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Place cooling rack with muffins over cookie sheet or waxed paper. In small microwavable bowl, place frosting. Microwave uncovered on High 10 to 15 seconds or until frosting is thin enough to drizzle. Dip fork into warmed frosting, and drizzle half the frosting over muffins. Sprinkle cereal pieces on top. Drizzle remaining frosting over cereal pieces.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place crushed cereal crumbs in a large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts to bag, one at a time. Seal bag and shake to coat. Place coated chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
