Make Heart-Shaped Cupcakes With This Easy Hack

While your mind might be on dips, wings, and beer thanks to the upcoming Super Bowl, there’s another food-centric event coming as well: Valentine’s Day. If you’ve got to make food for your kiddo’s school event or a Galentine’s Day party, this hack is perfect.

Thanks to the Taste of Home TikTok account, you can make heart-shaped cupcakes with nothing more than a liner.

While you’ve likely seen heart-shaped bakeware, if you’re not constantly baking heart-shaped items, you don’t really need it (unless you want one, and then, by all means, go for it). The easier solution is to use a foil cupcake liner and a classic cupcake tray to hack your way to the heart-shaped dessert.

In the video, the baker takes an aluminum foil tin and folds a divet in the top, pointing toward the center. They then shape the edges so that they stay rounded and form a heart. Next, the liner is placed into a traditional cupcake tin, filled with batter, and baked. When they come out, they’re perfectly heart-shaped and all you need to do is add icing.

No matter how you celebrate Valentine’s Day, there’s still plenty of time to add an extra activity or two.
