I found these awesome cupcakes and cookies on Glorious Treats and had to share! They are so adorable and look absolutely scrumptious! I will be putting my baking skills to the test tomorrow and trying these out for my special hubby on Father's Day!

Then the "tomato"
Then the "lettuce"
Top 1/2 of your "bun" goes on top
Put a touch of OJ on the top bun and sprinkle on some sesame seeds

serve this sweetest burger to your sweetest hubby!

  1. Glad you enjoyed my post! =) I hope they work out for you, I always get lots of smiles and rave review with them.
    Two tiny notes- I'd recommend coating the cookie "fries" in white granulated sugar, not powedered sugar (powdered sugar would taste yummy, but the granulated sugar will give you the closest look to salt.
    Also, my name is Glory.
    Have a great weekend!
