Amuse Dad this Sunday with A Grill Fest Themed Party!


















Father's Day, a holiday which honors fathers worldwide, is celebrated in the United States on the third Sunday of June. It originated in the United States in 1910, a few years after the country began celebrating Mother’s Day. Father’s Day became an official U.S. holiday in 1972.

Give dad the day off Sunday as the feast is prepared for him! Make a Burger Bar with all types of toppings so you can build your own masterpiece. Add some delicious sides and top it off with these clever brownie cupcakes. Here is the recipe from Disney’s www. familyfun.com.

Grill Fest Cupcakes

Ingredients:

· Brownie batter

· Black food coloring

· White frosting

· Orange sugar

· Caramel creams

· Red, yellow, and green candy fruit slices

· Hot Tamales candies

Instructions:

1. To make a batch of 12, place liners in a muffin pan, oil them, and fill them two thirds full of your favorite brownie batter, then bake according to the recipe directions. Let the brownies cool.

2. In a small bowl, mix one or two drops of black food coloring with 1/4 cup white frosting. Transfer the frosting to a ziplock bag and snip a small section from the corner. Pipe grate lines onto each brownie and let them set for 20 minutes. Add embers with a sprinkle of orange sugar.

3. Prepare the grill food as instructed below and press it in place atop each brownie.


Kebabs = A caramel cream and red, yellow, and green candy fruit slices, cut into small pieces + toothpick skewers


Pork chop = two thirds of a caramel cream, molded with fingers + black food coloring, applied with a toothpick


Hot dogs = Hot Tamales candies + black food coloring, applied with a toothpick.


Have the kids make Father’s Day cards which are always better than store bought cards. You can even make dad’s gift perfect for the grill master himself with grill tools in the shape of golf clubs. The set is $25 at http://www.uncommongoods.com/search.html/find/?q=golf. Whatever you do for dad, make it from the heart and you can’t go wrong. Father’s day is June 19th this year. Happy Grilling!
