My mother in law requested I make some sweets for the bake sale at her church. Needless to say, I was happy to make some tasty treats for Jesus!

Side note, I got these super cool Individual Cupcake Containers from amazon and this is the second time I’ve used them for one of her bake sales. They seem to be a huge hit with the church ladies and sell out fast!

The mini Oreos and chocolate drizzle on top are optional, but I was having fun and in the festive mood! Plus I had extra melted chocolate leftover from the Halloween Sugar Cookies I made for the sale too!

Cute! I love a good chocolate drizzle!

It’s an easy simple way to add a little pizzazz to your baked good! I also used these Rainbow cupcake liners from amazon because if I’m making cupcakes for the Methodist church that is experiencing a lot of disaffiliation due to deciding to accept gay marriage finally, I figured why not give them a little pizzazz too!

Also this super cheap piping set from amazon has saved the day while all of our stuff is still in storage while we save for our first house!
