Doggie Cupcakes





The other night, I made a few doggie cupcakes from the "Hello, Cupcake!" book. They were pretty challenging, as they required carving Famous Chocolate Wafer cookies to make the ears and parts of the faces. I heated the cookies for a few seconds in the microwave as the book suggests, however, I broke more than a few in the carving process and those cookies are pretty expensive. My husband said that these cupcakes were not my best work. I would have to agree with him. What do you think? Keep practicing???

I would adopt any of those dogs, they are all really cute! I hope you keep making them. I would like to see a Great Dane made from about a dozen cupcakes!

Cheers,
Alan

I think your doggies came out great! I couldn't find the chocolate wafers so I used Anna's brand cookies. I got them at the grocery store but they also sell them at IKEA since they are Swedish. They are sort of a flower shape but I carved them pretty easily with a steak knife to make smooth edges.
