Easy Mini Ice Cream Cupcakes:

Are you ready to dig in? Once you take a bite, you won’t want to stop. And the cherry (or rather the candy) on top is how simple these little beauties are to make. Let’s get started. Ingredients: I found everything I needed at our local Walmart, it made shopping super simple!

• 2 1/2 Cups Peanut Butter & Cocoa Pebbles Cereal (Found at participating Walmart stores. You earn $1 cash back if you sign up here!)
• 1 Cup Shelled Peanuts
• 1/2 Cup Melted Butter
• 1 Cup Brown Sugar
• Soft Vanilla Ice Cream
• 1/2 Cup Melted Peanut Butter
• 1/2 Cup Chocolate Sauce or Hot Fudge
• Whip Cream
• Chocolate & Peanut Butter Candy (optional)

Let’s get cooking, or rather, let’s get freezing!

Instructions:

Crust-

• Mix together the Peanut Butter & Cocoa Pebbles, shelled peanuts, and brown sugar in a bowl.

• Add melted butter and mix together. Mixture will be loose.

• Scoop a layer into greased muffin tin and press down.

• Add vanilla ice cream on top of the crust filling each tin to the top. Smooth the top of the ice cream and give the muffin tin a slight tap to get rid of air bubbles.
• Place in the freezer for at least an hour, or until completely frozen.
• Once frozen, drizzle top of the ice cream with chocolate sauce.
• To get the cupcakes out of the muffin tins, simply use a knife and cut them away from the side of the tins. They will pop right out.

• Top with whipped cream, drizzled chocolate sauce, melted peanut butter, and candy.
• Grab a spoon and dig in!!
