Blickenstaffs Cheerwine Cheesecake Cupcake

August 16, 2013 by Kaylynn Zoe 4 Comments

Please tell me you’ve been into Blickenstaffs before? It’s a delight – no matter what age you are, there’s something for everyone. I LOVE going into Blickenstaffs because it’s a place that T can actually run around and I can let her roam free (which doesn’t happen often – yeah, I’m THAT mom!).

I was drawn to the sodas because I heard they had Butterbeer (from Harry Potter) and was dying to try it. I grabbed a bottle of that and saw some other things that caught my eye as well – one of them was Cheerwine. YUM. A delicious blend of cherry and carbonation? Insta win. Thank you Blickenstaffs for being so radical and supplying such delicious beverages.

I started to wonder what I could create with this soda and I kept coming back to cupcakes. I’d found a glorious recipe in one of my cupcake books, but I wasn’t satisfied. So the Cheerwine sat in my fridge waiting to be used…

Flash forward a few weeks and I’d randomly made a cheesecake with my new blender (thanks mom and happy birthday to me!). Super strange, right? Cheesecake from a blender? Guys, I’m so in love. So I had this entire cheesecake sitting around and I’d seen those pictures on Pinterest where you drop a spoonful of cheesecake into a cupcake to make a glorious filling. Then I remembered the Cheerwine. BAM! There it was my friends.
