Lots O’ Baseball, Burger Cupcakes and Chuck E Cheese

Insta Weekend Recap
Hey all-
Hands down this past weekend was probably one of the best weekends I have had in a LONG while. It was filled with family fun activities and nothing fashion related and I enjoyed every waking minute of it. I got to attend 2 baseball games,(well one was teeball), go toy shopping, indulge in Baltimore Sno Balls (Im OBSESSED NOW), bring out my inner soccer mom by making burger cupcakes (recipe below), and play game after game at Chuck E Cheese!!!! Even though I am 21+ 9 years old, I still enjoy being a kid at times and just LIVING life in the most unpretentious ways possible!
Hope you enjoy some of the pics and you guys had an AWESOME weekend as well!
Go Orioles!!!!

Burger Cupcakes (recipe from Duncan Hines)
-I did not use yellow frosting nor shredded coconut due to allergies-
I also did not use Sesame Seeds and instead used white Cupcake Gems.
I prefer Duncan Hines when baking because for me they come out the best but feel free to use ANY cake mix and/or brand. Or you can bake from scratch as well!

Hamburger Cupcakes

Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe Classic Cake Mix

•Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe Devil’s Food Cake Mix

•2 cans Duncan Hines Creamy Home-Style Classic Vanilla Frosting

•Liquid food coloring

•Sesame seeds

•Shredded Coconut

•Cocktail toothpicks

•6 Large eggs

•Water

•Vegetable oil

Baking Instructions

1.Bake vanilla cupcakes according to directions on box. DO NOT use cupcake liners, but grease and flour the pan so they easily pop out.

2.Bake chocolate cupcakes according to directions on box (either use 2 cupcake trays or thoroughly clean between vanilla & chocolate batches). Again, DO NOT use cupcake liners.

3.When vanilla cupcakes are cool, cut them in half horizontal-wise with a serrated knife to create the “bun.”

4.When chocolate cupcakes are cool, cut them in half horizontal-wise and save the cupcake top as the “meat.” You can discard the bottoms

5.Use ample amounts of food coloring to mix a batch of red icing (“ketchup”) and another batch of yellow icing (“mustard”)

6.Pour some of the coconut in a bowl and pour a few drops of green food coloring in it. Stir with a fork until the coconut is light green in color like “lettuce”

7.Lightly dampen burger “lids” with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds so they stick a little.

8.To create the burger layers…put red icing on the bottom bun, then add the “meat,” then add the yellow icing, then sprinkle the lettuce on top, then add the lid.

9.Finish by using a cocktail toothpick to keep it all together!

10.Note: If you’re in a hurry, you can purchase the red and yellow pre-colored icing in a tube.

11.Note: Beware of heavily colored icing, it can stain!
