Hold on to your spoon, the best is yet to come!

In the coming weeks I will be posting more about this event and to start you off I will be sharing with you desert! So grab a spoon and enjoy!

Nicki´s Lava Cake Supreme

Ingredients:

Chocolate Cupcakes--recipe of your choice(I used my sisters Devils Food Cake)

Hot Fudge Sauce--again your choice--either homemade as I did, or store bought)

Vanilla Ice Cream--homemade or store bought

Hard Shell

Game Plan:

A week in advance I baked the chocolate cupcakes in a jumbo muffin pan and made the hot fudge sauce. I found a great, simple recipe on allrecipes.com . Once the cupcakes cooled off, I turned them upside down, dug a well and filled with sauce. I froze them right up to desert time.

The fudge-filled, frozen cupcakes are "nuked" for 45 seconds in the microwave. Of course this time can vary depending on your microwave. Then I top it off with one scoop of vanilla ice cream and the Hard Shell. Add a side of fresh strawberries-and you have yourself a great desert.

I have served this desert to various groups, and it has always, always been a sucess. I wonder how it would taste if it was a cappaciouno cupcake with coffee ice cream?
