SNICKERS CUPCAKES
These Snickers Cupcakes are over the top! Delicious, decadent, chocolatey, caramel-y, peanut butter-y and rich! And oh so good!
Now before I too much into the cupcakes, I want to talk Divergent again. If you are reading them and don’t want any spoilers, skip ahead. Last week, I mentioned that I was almost done with the third book in the Divergent series, Allegiant. I have finished. And I am not a happy camper.
