I’m, by choice, not a parent.
It isn’t for lack of trying, but for some reason lesbians can’t make babies. Even if my mom wants us to adopt an “oriental”
baby, we are very happy with being child-free.
I do, however, take being an aunt very seriously. I adore each and every one of my nieces and
nephews. They have enriched my life from
the moment they were born and continue to awe me and Tiffany. We are so proud of them. They are smart, funny engaging people
and, I may be biased, but I know the world is a better place because they are
in it. I love you, Molly, Christopher,
Steven, Caroline, Austin and Mallory. I
know you know that, but I figured I would make it official by telling the internets.
Something
else I love…cupcakes. Look at these
cupcakes. LOOK AT THEM.
Hot Fudge
Oreo Cupcakes or Pie
Ingredients
1 (15 oz) package oreo cookies with
the cream attached
¼ cup melted butter
½ gallon vanilla ice cream
1 medium container frozen whipped
topping
Toasted nuts
Hot fudge sauce (recipe below)
Preparations
Crush Oreos and combine with melted
butter. Reserve at least 1 cup of crumbs
for later, and press remaining crumbs firmly into a 9”x13” pan. Let ice cream become soft enough to spread
onto crumbs, or slice ice cream in 1” layers and place on top of crumbs and
press seams together. Top ice cream with
a few more crumbs. Drizzle with hot
fudge sauce and sprinkle toasted nuts on top.
Spread whipped topping over all, and drizzle again with hot fudge
sauce. Cover and return to freezer. You can use the above directions to make
cupcakes, or make 2 pie plates.

Store remaining hot fudge in a jar with lid or well sealed
container. You can keep this in your
fridge for many days. Simply warm when
