Whenever I go over to my brother’s house for dinner, dessert is always my responsibility. And honestly, I can happily take that assignment.

I saw the picture for these super cute cupcakes about six months ago, and knew exactly when to make them…for my 41 year old brother’s birthday.

I’m pretty big on 80’s movies…one in particular is “Overboard” with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. One scene in that movie, she tells the family that she made a chocolate cream pie for dessert.
