We are two weeks away from the year's most romantic holiday and I am already starting to feel all the love in the air. Not only do I like to celebrate the day with my sweetheart, AKA-Hubby, but I also enjoy making special treats for my boys so they will be reminded of how much they are loved.

Minion Cupcakes Party Recipe
My younger son's birthday is at the end of this month and he is going to be ten years old! I'm very excited about planning his special day for him and making it unforgettable for him and the rest of the family.

I'm so excited about how these came out and I cannot wait to replicate them for his party. I think I'm going to have to make a whole bunch because, between my sons and nephews, there are eight boys in the family and they all have hearty appetites. I hope you guys enjoy making them in your home as much as I did eating them!
