Cinnamon Gingerbread Fudge



1 can Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Starter
1 packet Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Flavor Mix (Gingerbread)
1 bag Nestle Toll House Premier White Morsels
1 to 2 Tbsp. Crisco Shortening
Cinnabon Sprinkle Cinnamon Roll Flavored Topping (cinnamon/sugar mixture in equal parts if not available)

Using an 8x8 pan, line w/foil, and spray with Baker's Joy flour/oil spray or equivalent. Set aside. Follow steps to combine Frosting Creations Starter & Frosting Creations flavor mix. Set aside. Melt white morsels over a double boiler on low/medium, combined with 1 Tbsp. Crisco Shortening. If a second one is needed, add that. I only used one, though, and just took longer to melt the mixture. Stir continuously. After chips are melted, add to medium sized bowl, and combine with frosting. Stir until well blended. Pour mixture into pan. Add Cinnabon Sprinkle Cinnamon Roll Flavored Topping over the top of mixture, to taste. Refrigerate until firm, and then cut & enjoy!

Chocolate Marshmallow Peanut Butter Fudge


1 can Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Starter
1 packet Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Flavor Mix (Chocolate Marshmallow)
1 to 2 Tbsp. Crisco Shortening
1 c. Chocolate Chips
1 c. Peanut Butter Chips
3/4 cup Fisher Ice Cream Toppings Nut Topping
3/4 cup Reese's Mini Pieces Baking Pieces

Using an 8x8 pan, line w/foil, and spray with Baker's Joy flour/oil spray or equivalent. Set aside. Follow steps to combine Frosting Creations Starter & Frosting Creations flavor mix. Set aside. Mix nut topping & mini baking pieces in small bowl. Set aside. Melt chips over a double boiler on low/medium, combined with 1 Tbsp. Crisco Shortening. If a second one is needed, add that. I only used one, though, and just took longer to melt the mixture. Stir continuously. After chips are melted, add to medium sized bowl, and combine with frosting. Stir until well blended. Pour mixture into pan. and push in slightly, but not too much. Refrigerate until firm, and then cut & enjoy! Note: I used my Wilton Bite Size Brownie pan for today's recipe. If you do this, there's no need to grease each space. Also, I divided the nuts & mini baking pieces and just added 1 Tbsp. of nuts  to 12 pieces, and 1 Tbsp. of mini baking pieces to 12 pieces,  since this would make 24 pieces. Or, you could just mix both and divide among the 24 pieces of candy, if you have this pan or another.

4 Tbsp. Fisher Ice Cream Toppings Nut Topping (plus extra to sprinkle on cupcakes, before baking)
24 mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
1 can Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Starter
1 packet Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Flavor Mix (Chocolate Marshmallow)
Regular or Mini Cupcake Pan

Preheat oven according to directions on package. Mix DH Frosting Creations Flavor Mix with Frosting Creations Starter, according to directions. Set aside.

Add 1 cupcake liner to each well. Using an ice cream scoop for the regular pan, or small cookie scoop for the smaller pan, fill cupcake tin(s).

Before they cool, add 1 mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cup to the middle of each cupcake, and push down, so that they'll melt. I made them using my Debbie Meyer Cupcake Genius Pan, that has a rack you place on top of the pan, so that you get a hole in the middle of the cupcakes as they bake. If you don't have this, you can use a cupcake corer to get the hole in the middle. Let cool and pipe with Frosting Creations in the middle, and you have Elvis Presley Supreme Surprise Inside cupcakes! :)
