Mini OREO Surprise Cupcakes Recipe. Chocolate Cupcakes with Flaming Strawberries. Call me easily amused, but these little torch-topped cupcakes delight me. Besides being a cute novelty item for a party, I think they would add a little drama to the end of a romantic meal. I've been looking for something different to serve for Valentine's dessert, and this is definitely different. The strawberries are hollowed out and filled with a bit of liquor, then ignited with a match. For the cake portion, I chose a One Bowl Chocolate Cupcake recipe because 1. it's quick 2. it is easy, and 3. it fits my prerequisite for a light ending on date night. I should say, a light ending provided you don't eat too many. The cakes are just sweet enough, and have a light, fluffy crumb - the perfect vehicle for rich chocolate buttercream.
Notes for flaming strawberries:Any alcohol below 80 proof will not ignite well. Shaina made a margarita version of this on Babble Food.

Apple Walnut Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes « Can You Stay for Dinner? In all my years on the internet, I’ve received three unforgettable emails. Each were typed by my mother. I picture her sitting at the keyboard, perfectly positioned to type as though she were being tested for proficiency. Either full caps or none at all. Her nose turned slightly up at the computer because she can’t quite see the 24” monitor.
These electronic notes are the joy of my existence. The first email appeared in my inbox the day my mother discovered the internet. Truly perfect. The second best email was one that I’d like to have chiseled into stone. Love, articulated. And then there was the third email. Just so you know, she looks fabulous with bangs. The genius of email is the terseness.
But back to the email itself. And I don’t question her. I baked the cinnamon rolls. These are not light, they are not classically healthy, they can’t even be considered simple. Make them for a fall gathering, make them for your family, make them on Thanksgiving morning. Preheat the oven to 350º.
