Funny story. I was making cupcakes to take photos of my new cupcake stand from World Market for my post tomorrow and accidentally made the brownie box and had already started cooking them in my cupcake liners before I realized my mistake. I turned to pinterest and found this recipe for Cookie Dough Frosting. Let me say I am sooooo glad for my mistake. This icing is divine! Kenny isn’t a fan of cupcakes but loves brownies and cookies so I think I found a new birthday tradition for him. He loved these.

I just used the pillsbury fudge box brownies. They are my favorite. I have tried homemade but haven’t  found a recipe I liked. She did share a recipe for those on her blog though, if you want to make your own.

    Those look DIVINE!!! Oh I am dying to make them! Brownies and cupcakes are both my weakness. So is cookie dough. I think you should rename them "heaven in a cupcake that you cannot stop eating and will cause you to gain back all the weight you lost." or not. Totally your call. LOL :)
