PINEAPPLE CHEESECAKE CUPCAKES

While I love being a Super Mom, it is mandatory that I never loose myself!  Sometimes in life moms get so caught up in caring for their families that they forget to care for themselves.  So I take time to go to the gym, go to the hair salon and just enjoy being me.  One of the best ways I’ve been able to be me and enjoy life is during Girlz Night Out!  Every few months, I coordinate Girlz Night Out for my friends to get together and talk about life, go to a movie, eat great food and just lean on each other for support.  Well the next Girlz Night Out is going to be a Girlz Night “In” and I plan on serving some great appetizers and desserts for the beautiful women in my life!  I wanted something really special and it hit me BAM POW KABOOM – why not pineapple because it is way sweet just like my friends!  I knew I wanted something portion controlled so a cupcake was the perfect size!  Then there was the theme – when I saw the pink and blue Reynolds StayBrite baking cups it hit me – this is going to be a “Girly Jean Night” so we’d wear pink tops and blue jeans after all what is a theme without colors?!?  The Reynolds StayBrite baking cups I knew would hold its color after baking so all I had to do was buy some pink forks ~ HA!  I also love the way the Reynolds StayBrite baking cups are so much firmer than other baking cups.  They are lined with what else but foil!  I would imagine that is meant to hold the color but it also helps to mold the cupcake, especially when you are making a cream cheese cupcake that has no cake or crust up the sides!  The cupcakes turned out delicious and beautiful.  I know our Girlz Night In will be just as wonderful!  Remember being a Super Mom is GREAT but never forget to treat yourself like the FABULOUS gem that you are!
