Today is National Chocolate Milk Shake Day! I decided to focus today’s muffin tin on chocolate today to celebrate! Oh! It is also Cream Filled Doughnut Day on Wednesday I decided to celebrate that too!
I started ย this weeks lunch with cream cheese mixed with Ovaltine on an Arnold’s Mini Thin bread with hole taken from the middle to make it look like a doughnut. (My son just loves doughnuts. Next I have a cheese heart, because many people heart chocolate.
The corn made it in the tin to counterbalance all the chocolate and the cream filled doughnut beside it. I am really lucky that JDaniel loves veggies. Corn is one of his favorites. He also likes baked potatoes. This half of a baked potato was cut so that it could be wedged into the muffin tin.
Finally there are thin slices of fresh peaches with a chocolate syrup dip. Dipping is something I think most kids like to do.
This tin was fun to make and fun for JDaniel to eat. It really isn’t my healthiest tin. I will have to work on that for next week’s tin.
Disclaimer: I used an Ovaltine coupon I found in my Type A swag bag to get the Ovaltine for fee.
What is your favorite chocolate food?

Great idea! We used our Ovaltine coupon too – I send Pierce to school each morning with Ovaltine in a little thermos to go with his breakfast.
A little chocolate every once in a while is a nice treat! Sadly, I think my son inherited my chocoholism (isn’t it hereditary?) because he too loves it a little too much!
I just like chocolate. Anything chocolate is good.
I could eat this right now! You’re always so creative ๐ My favorite chocolate item is a chocolate cake with melted fudge and a scoop of ice cream!
Chocolate milkshake day? For real? I just inherited a milkshake maker this weekend. I think the universe is trying to tell me something. ๐
I love chocolate when it’s mixed with caramel!
Oh, my! That’s a yummy set of goods you’ve got there. And now I need to find my hands on a chocolate milkshake stat. After all I have too, to celebrate it’s special day ๐ I love chocolate, especially the combination of salty & sweet.
Yum! Mixing ovaltine with cream cheese, that’s a great idea!
This idea is adorable AND fun! Very creative! My favorite chocolate food is, uh, um….CHOCOLATE!!!! ๐
Such a wonderful idea on how to serve food! I’m trying it tomorrow, pronto. My favorite chocolate food is DARK chocolate. The higher the pure cocoa content, the better!
I love chocolate in pretty much any form it comes in. Yep, big fan of the chocolate! ๐

I don’t eat chocolate often, but I do love peanut butter & chocolate and chocolate covered pretzels are pretty darn tasty too! :> Looks like you had fun with this muffin tin!
You are so creative! My kids would be so excited to get a lunch like this.
My favorite chocolate comes in the form of Lindt dark chocolate truffles. Heavenly deliciousness!
Oh you are bad…tempting me with the chocolate. My favorite thing chocolate would have to be cheesecake. Oh boy.
I am so impressed with all the different cupcake holders you have. Wowza!
What a fun tin! I love chocolate anything:)
Fun! I love anything chocolate
Hmm… way too hard to pick just one favourite chocolate food. But I like your tin (and if anything I think you beat me on healthiness this week – at least yours has a vegetable in it! Must be a treat-y sort of week…)
My favorite chocolate item is m&m’s…yum! ๐
At first I thought the middle right was a baked potato! I was like, she is so talented and has it shaped like a heart! ๐ Well…you are talented and I could see you doing that!
National Chocolate Milk Shake Day? How did I miss this? I’ll have to celebrate tomorrow to make up for it. This tin is gorgeous. What a great treat for JDaniel! Lucky boy. My fave chocolate treat is a “No Bake Cookie.” I’ll email you the recipe if you’re interested.
Mmmmm!!! Yummy!!! What a wonderful idea!!
i love your heart tin!! its super cute!
I would have to say my fav chocolate food would be a good old fation chocolate bar dipped in some skippy peanut butter! Yum!!
I love the hearts–so cute! And thank goodness you told me about creme filled doughnut day–I will be celebrating. ๐ And I love a good chocolate brownie.
What a great idea!! I love it.
My kids would love it and it’s a neat way to get them to eat some healthy snacks!
Oh, I could SO celebrate Cream Donut Day! ๐
yum-o! my kids would be crazy from the sugar high! ha!!!
im so sorry to leave the answer to your question on here…but for some reason i can not get to your email address. Im sure it is a malfunction on my end of the computer but here goes:
The pickle juice does not get all over any other thing in the lunch because of 2 factors:
1. i put them in a silicone (rubber) cupcake cup … so nothing leaks and
2. the lunch box i am using sits upwrite.It never gets put on its side.
There should be a link in my muffin tin post to read more about the lunch box im using.
hope that helps. And soo sorry to get back to you this way ๐
Chocolate milkshake day and cream filled donut day in the same week? This might be my favorite week ever! I love chocolate icecream the best ๐
Muffin tin meals?!? Genius! Why have I never thought of this before?!? I must try this. I’m sure my kids would even eat broccoli, as long as I put it in a cute display, right? ๐
My girls would have loved this ๐ They (and their daddy) are all chocoholics!
