Ice Cream Cupcake Roundup
Remember the ice cream cupcakes I made? Here, I’ll refresh your memory…
And as a variation, making it dairy-filled by adding a layer of ganache into the mix:
Then there were the Coconut cupcakes with Margarita sorbet:
And the variation of using raspberry frozen yogurt instead:
I entered these cupcakes into the Ice Cream Cupcake Roundup, hosted by Cupcake Project and Scoopalicious. They’ve posted all of the entries (here and here) and wow there are some great looking ice cream cupcakes over there. Be sure to check them all out and to vote for the Reader’s Choice award. Note that if you decide to vote for one of my creations, you can only vote for the Dairy Free cupcakes or the Coconut/Margarita cupcakes. Since the others were just variations, they’re aren’t being entered into the voting pool.

What a cute idea! As always, you’ve provided the inspiration for what I’ll make this weekend as a dessert.
PS – Using leftover pulled pork from your recipe to make nachos as well!
I love this! I’m new to baking so I’m wondering: when you pipe the batter onto the pan, how much batter do you use for each one? I’m just wondering if I should make them thin, or will they spread out? Thanks 🙂

Sorry for not responding sooner. They spread out a little bit, but not too much. Did you end up making them? How did they turn out?
They turned out great! my first few tests, i made them too big with too much batter, and they were pretty huge. I was surprised how little batter you need, and they are so nice and fluffy 😀
I couldn’t find marshmallow frosting, so i ended up making my own.. turns out its pretty easy! thanks again! they were a huge hit!

So glad you enjoyed them!
How far in advance can you assemble them? I was hoping to do so at least two hours ahead of time. Thank you.
We discovered these yummies while on the hunt for the perfect Suberbowl treat! They look delicious! Thanks for sharing!
