NOTE: I get messages asking me why I post these types of recipes while I’m following a zero carb animal kingdom only food plan. My answer is because I’m following ZC, but I bet you’re not! Just because I eat a certain way does not mean I have to limit myself to sharing only meat recipes. I’m not the carb police! lol

Chocolate Heart Cupcakes
Click HERE to learn how to make the heart shape!
INGREDIENTS:
Cupcakes
12 regular-size glass or ceramic marbles (see my TIP below, I used foil)
1 box Betty Crocker SuperMoist cake mix devil’s food
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
Frosting
1 cup butter, softened
4 cups powdered sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
Red or pink food color
Candy sprinkles, if desired
Darlene’s Tip: I did this before and I used balls of aluminum foil instead of marbles and it worked like a charm! You can use any brand cake mix that you want and you can save time and just buy the frosting already made.
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1: Heat oven to 350°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 30 regular-size muffin cups. Place 1 marble in each muffin cup between paper baking cup and muffin pan so baking cup takes on heart shape.
Step 2: Make cake batter as directed on box. Fill each cup two-thirds full of batter.
Step 3: Bake 14 to 15 minutes or until tops of cupcakes bounce back when touched and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely on cooling rack.
Step 4: In large bowl, beat softened butter, powdered sugar, milk and vanilla with electric mixer on high speed 3 to 4 minutes or until frosting is light and fluffy. Add food color to make desired shade of pink.
Step 5: Spread frosting on cooled cupcakes with knife or use decorating bag fitted with plain tip. Top with candy sprinkles.
