The Cupcake:

-You need a box of Dunkin Hines (or other) cake mix !

-Just follow the steps with regards to pre-heating the oven, and making the batter, written on the box. 

-then line your cup cake pan with the little paper cupcake holders.

-line the bottom of the holders with a bit of the batter, and place a Hershies Kiss chocolate on top. (optional, but it is a nice little surprise when you bite in)

-Then fill the holder almost all the way to the top.

- and Bake :)

- let them cool for 10-20 minutes after they come out of the oven

The Nutella (yes,I said Nutella) Icing:

Ingredients:

- 3/4 cup unsalted butter

- 3 cups sifted icing sugar

- 1/3 cup milk

- 1 teaspoon vanilla

- 1/2 cup Nutella

* Just mix them all together with an electric mixer.

* Let it cool in the fridge while the cupcakes are also cooling (~10-20 mins)

The Perfect Hearts:

-This is made of a thicker icing (my homemade recipe) that looks like fondant, but tastes WAY better.

Ingredients:

- 1/4 cup butter

- 1/4 cup shortning

- 1 tsp Vanilla

- 2 cups sifted sugar

* Again just mix it all together. 

* It is very thick (don’t worry)

* Put it on a board covered in parchment paper. Then put parchment paper over it, and roll it until it is flat with a rolling pin. The parchment paper in top stops  the icing from sticking to the rolling pin.

* Use a heart cut out (if you have) or just take a knife and make little hearts.

Putting it together:

* Once your cupcakes have cooled completely ice them with the Nutella icing

* Then put the hearts on top

AND ENJOY <3
