Prep time: 20 min.
Baking time: 21 min.
Decoration time: 30 min.
Difficulty: Challenging
What you'll need:
- 1 bag SNICKERS® Brand MINIS®
- 1 bag DOVE® Brand Smooth Milk Chocolate
- 1 box (18.25-oz.) chocolate cake mix
- 2 boxes waffle ice cream bowls
- 20 unsalted mini twist pretzels
- 2 cans (16-oz.) vanilla frosting
- 2 teaspoons instant cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon warm water
- Cinnamon
- 2 12-cup cupcake pans
- 20 paper cupcake liners
- Wax paper
- Resealable plastic bags
What to do:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line the cupcake pans with the paper cupcake liners.
- Roughly chop 2 cups of SNICKERS® Brand MINIS®. Prepare the cake mix according to the package instructions and fold in the chopped SNICKERS® Brand MINIS®. Divide the batter evenly between the cupcake pans.
- Bake for approximately 18-21 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven, transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
- Meanwhile, melt the DOVE® Brand Smooth Milk Chocolate in the microwave, stirring every twenty seconds until smooth. Spread a thin layer on the outside of each waffle bowl. Put the bowls on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Cut the bottom loop off the pretzels and dab the cut ends with frosting. Arrange the pretzel handle on the chocolate covered cup. Refrigerate until set.
- Remove paper liners from cupcakes. Place one into each waffle bowl. Dissolve cocoa powder with warm water and blend with one can of vanilla frosting. Microwave the mixture for 10-15 seconds, or until the consistency of sour cream. Spoon some mixture into each waffle bowl, covering the cupcake.
- Transfer the remaining can of vanilla frosting into a resealable bag with a large corner snipped and pipe large dollops of frosting into each cup. Sprinkle top with cinnamon.
