Whoo’s hungry? I saw these Owl Cupcakes on Pinterest a couple weeks ago and ooh’d and aah’d thinking how darling they were. I kinda have a cray-cray love for owls. They just make me smile. I even have a Pinterest board for them. Anywho, I clicked through the spotted pin to find no tutorial, just a pic. Boo! However, after a closer look, I realized it wasn’t too hard to see that the ‘secret’ ingredients are Oreo Cookies and M&M’s. Woo-Hoo! Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate!

As I’ve mentioned a time or two before, Halloween isn’t my thing — but FALL is. Growing up in a pastors home, instead of Halloween parties, we had Harvest Parties. Tell me the little cuties wouldn’t be a hit! They’re almost a little too cute to eat! {giggle}

Let’s see how easy they really are to whip up. Ready? Let’s do it!
