ShotCakes!

Today I went to a place called ShotCakes in the mall near me. My boyfriend and I saw it on this show called The Phantom Gourmet (we watch it most Sunday mornings!) that reviews local restaurants and eateries and decided we had to try it. It's a combination of two things I love - cupcakes and icecream! The ShotCakes are cupcakes filled with soft-serve icecream!

I ordered red velvet and my boyfriend got cookie dough. His was delicious, but I was disappointed with mine! The combination of cake and soft-serve was sooo yummy, but the cake itself was not great. I like when you can taste the cocoa in red velvet cake AND it didn't have cream cheese frosting which is my favorite part of red velvet cakes. I don't think you should be even able to CALL it red velvet unless the frosting is cream cheese. Next time, I'll have to get a different combination.

Have you ever tried these??
