Default Betty Crocker Frosting Containers

Okay, I've accumulated a good supply of these due to the popularity of the 2 Ingredient Fudge Recipe. What can I make with them? I've thought of a container for a travelling sewing kit. Maybe glue a pin cushion in the bottom with the hand sewing suppliess on top? What else?

I've never tried that. This is using canned frosting, like Duncan Hines or Betty Crocker, and not a dry mix? My first reaction is it sounds kind of disgusting and too rich - I'd eat one bite and feel sick. (I'm just wondering and NOT trying to be critical.) Is it just frosting mixed with chocolate chips? How does it become fudgy?

Whoops, I guess I'm sort of going off topic, sorry....

no, it really is good. the chips gets melted and all mixed in.

I just use the containers instead of tupperware.

Sorry for the confusion...The recipe is on QB under "Two Ingredient Fudge" It works up really fast and is delicious. Makes an excellent quick gift for Christmas too. I made my last batch into tiny loaves and wrapped them in Saran with the recipe for my friends. Now I have the cute plastic frosting containers with a dandy snap on lid and I'm wondering what they can be used for in the sewing room.

Here's a website I found. Has some good ideas. I think a travel sewing kit is a good idea - maybe with a small pin cushion glued to the inside of the lid.

Wow thanks for the site! Some cool ideas. I really like the one for a travelling first aid kit.
