As of today I’ve been blogging for 5 years! Wow, I can’t believe it’s been that long; it doesn’t even feel like it’s been that long!! I started blogging back in 2009 as a way to keep track of our favorite recipes and it just kind of started to grow.
People started to read this blog and comment and I fell in love with the idea of having a blog. If you’re reading this right now then you are why I am still blogging. You are so awesome! So thank you for reading, commenting and just being great!
Thanks to this blog I have learned so much in the kitchen and I’ve have been able to experience so much. I have also met some amazing people and been to some amazing places in the past 5 years! It really has changed my life. I truly love this blog.
So what could I do to celebrate my blog’s birthday? It took me a while to decide and I’m still not even sure that I made the right thing to celebrate with but since we all know that I’m not a fan of making cakes, cupcakes seemed to be the next best option. Plus everyone likes cupcakes, right? If not, sorry… not sorry. 😉
I bought these chocolate crisp pearls a while ago and from the first time I saw them I knew that I wanted to make cupcakes with them….well top cupcakes with them!
Chocolate, Marshmallow fluff and more chocolate, what more could a girl ask for? Nothing I tell ya. It’s pretty much the perfect thing to celebrate with if you ask me.This chocolate cupcake is so chocolate and soft and the frosting has the perfect amount of sweetness!
I made the just made a quick marshmallow filling to pipe inside of the cupcakes because I really, really didn’t want to have to go all the way to the store for a jar of marshmallow fluff.
Haha you can tell there is a baker in the house when you can make cupcakes, frosting and marshmallow filling from scratch with things you already have in the kitchen! haha.

How many calories is one cupcake?
Angie | Big Bear's Wife says
mmmm, I have no idea…
Alina says
Hi Angie! I would really like to try this recipe, but being from a European country it’s a bit difficult to guess the size of a stick of butter. Would you be kind and try to give us the measurements in grams or liters where the case? Thank you a lot!
Angie | Big Bear's Wife says
Hi Alina,
I don’t measure in grams but according to a Google search 1 stick of butter = 113.4 grams. 🙂
haley collins says
So it says for the marshmallow filling that you only need 2 cups of powdered sugar. But in the instructions it says to add 4 cups to the mixture. Did you mean 2? Or do we need 4?
Angie | Big Bear's Wife says
Haley,
Hey! Sorry about that. it’s just the 2 cups of powdered Sugar. You could always use more if you wanted it to be thicker but I only used the 2. Don’t know why I typed 4 in the directions, I was probably thinking of another recipe for marshmallow icing 🙂
