chunky monkey + cupcake = the stuff of dreams
i think tara at smells like home has been reading my mind. or my tummy.
meet the “i heart my chunky hubby” cupcake. modeled after ben & jerry’s delicious chunky monkey ice cream, tara whipped up this roasted banana cupcake filled with chocolate ganache and topped with a dollop of peanut butter frosting, a banana slice and a chocolate covered pretzel. this is spooky because those ingredients are what i used to sustain myself all of last week. a bunch of bananas. more peanut butter than is healthy (but it was the natural kind!). chocolate chips. and pretzels. and sometimes i mixed them all together…
chocolate chips + pretzels = chocolate covered pretzels
chocolate chips + peanut butter = desperate woman’s reese’s
banana + peanut butter = elvis is in the building
that’s my kinda math. and this is my kinda cupcake!
