Have Your Cake & Eat it Too!

As a Mommy of three and wife of 11 years, my daily routine is a whirlwind. In an effort to carve out some "me time" and explore a creative outlet, I have picked up a new hobby. Baking! This blog highlights my journey into baking and chronicles my sporadic adventures.

To add Maltesers, or NOT add Maltesers....THAT is the Question.

Paul came home with a french vanilla cake mix and a large bag of maltesers.  His excitement was pretty high because he spent a while at work having the legendary "What dessert would you eat for the rest of your life, if you could only choose one dessert." epic conversation.  Somewhere along the way, a colleague mentioned that she adds maltesers to her cupcakes and it's WONDERFUL. 

So I got the kids cracking on whipping these up for Daddy.  If you ask me, I would have gone in a reeses peanut butter cup, hershey's kiss or even a Rolo kind of direction for the melty goodness...but who am I to judge? 







In the end, I found the contrast of a crunchy center to be a bit strange.  I would definitely repeat this with something softer in the future though.
