Red Velvet Dr Pepper Cupcakes Recipe Review

Continuing on with my Soda Pop Cupcakes series I present Red Velvet and Dr. Pepper – my fave pop in a cupcake! The Dr. Pepper in the icing adds a light brown tint to the icing so it looks great with chocolate candies. I used the miniature Hershey chocolates and it gave a little more variety as some had krackle’s, mr. goodbars, etc… on them. Anything chocolate would be delicious though.

Cupcake Tools I recommend:

Red Velvet Dr. Pepper Cupcakes

Red Velvet Dr. Pepper Soda Cupcakes

Ingredients

Cake
1 Red Velvet Cake Mix
1 12 oz. can of Dr. Pepper
Icing
1 1/3 cups shortening
1/3 - 1/2 cup Dr. Pepper
3 tablespoons Dream Whip
2 lbs powdered sugar
2 tablespoons Dr. Pepper flavoring (optional but really helps pump up the flavor)

Instructions

Mix cake ingredients together and bake in cupcake pan according to box directions.
While your cupcakes are baking/cooling mix icing ingredients together. I love this icing because it's not to sweet. The longer you mix it the smoother it gets. One of the few recipes I break out the kitchen aid for as I like to mix it for 15 minutes. However a quick mix will suffice.
Ice the tops of the cupcakes and top the cupcake off with half a miniature chocolate.
Perfection :)

Crock Pot Chicken Curry

This post may contain affiliate links. View our disclosure policy.

May 13, 2013 by Clair Leave a Comment

Tim really loves a good Indian Curry so when I saw this Crock Pot Chicken Curry recipe I thought I could change it up a bit and customize it for us. Neither of us are big sweet potato fans but I felt like the curry powder disguised the taste well whereas Tim would definitely have preferred regular potatoes so feel free to change yours up too!

You can add peanuts, raisins or even coconut to this and I added some shredded coconut which was delish. In future I’ll probably add 1 or 2 chopped carrots too. Before you start you may want to use this unprocessed Chicken Bouillon Recipe I have to make it better for you.

Serve it with rice and you’ve got a great curry for a weeknight!

Crock Pot Chicken Curry

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 onion, chopped

Instructions
Place the potatoes and onion in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Add the chicken on top.
Combine the water, garlic, chicken bouillon and curry powder and pour over the top.
Cook on low for 5-6 hours.
Remove the chicken and vegetables and keep warm.
Mix the flour or cornstarch into the sauce in the pot and cook for a further 15 minutes.
Prepare your rice while waiting.
Remove sauce and add to top of curry before serving.

5 Grilling Side Dishes

This post may contain affiliate links. View our disclosure policy.

May 10, 2013 by Clair Leave a Comment

It’s grilling season and while Hubs is firing up the grill outside I like to prepare Grilling Side Dishes. Most of mine aren’t for the grill as Tim likes to have “room for meat” as he calls it but there’s a few side dishes that seem to go well with our grilled meat and are good to eat outdoors. Here’s my collection of grilling side dishes:

Apple and Sweet Potato Packets

These Apple and Sweet Potato Packets are like the old boy scout potatoes but with a unique twist and they do cook on your grill giving them that grilled taste!

Zucchini Fries

When my friend introduced me to these Zucchini Fries I was hooked. Zucchini has never been my favorite vegetable but I gobbled them down using her recipe!

Garlic & Parmesan Baked Potatoes

This has to go down as “Man Food” as it’s Hubby’s most requested side dish and these baked potatoes are easy peasy!

Carrot Fries

Don’t want to always serve a starch? These carrot fries will curb the need to always prepare a potato!

Grilled Zucchini

Want to make grilled zucchini? Move the meat over and use this easy recipe!

What’s your favorite side dish for your backyard BBQ?

May 6, 2013 by Clair Leave a Comment

If you’re looking for a freezer crock pot recipe then this freezer Crock Pot Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken is a favorite of my friend Holly. The great thing is you can freeze all the ingredients together in a freezer ziploc and just remove when you need it. This would also make a great new Mom meal/gift for her freezer.

What i love about freezer meals like this is that as they defrost they marinate creating a great flavor ready to be dumped in the crock pot.

Freezer Crock Pot Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken

Ingredients
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts - whole or cubes
1 whole pineapple or a can of pineapple slices
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup brow sugar
Instructions
Place all the ingredients in a freezer ziploc bag and label. I also added cook time of 6-8 hours on low.
Freeze.
The day you need it pull it out and let defrost. If I was making for dinner I'd pull out early in the morning so i could start cooking around noon.
