Shirley Temple Cupcakes #Recipe

7:00 AM



When I was little, my dad would always take me with him to pick up our take out Chinese food. The place we would go to would have Shirley Temple's and my dad would always get me one. I remember how much joy that sparkly drink with its bright red cherries brought me when I was little, and I decided to merge it with something else that makes me happy now, cupcakes! The result? Delicious Shirley Temple cupcakes that everyone is sure to love!

  2. I loved Shirley Temples as a kid too! I haven't had one in ages. This cupcake is so cool. My daughter's bday is on Saturday. I bet she would love something like this. And your picture is beautiful, too, with that gleaming cherry on top. :)
