I don't have a lot of time tonight, but I wanted to share these cupcakes I made for my boss' dad's birthday! He's a big golfer so I thought these would be fitting. I'm sure I'm not the first person to make something like this, but I've had the idea in my mind for over a year and finally had a reason to make them! I made my first batch of golf balls using Oreo truffles dipped in white chocolate...but I couldn't make the little indentations. It looked like a ping pong ball. HA. So I ended up making some marshmallow fondant instead. It worked a lot better, but certainly didn't taste as good. I hope he liked them, I certainly had fun making them!

Here is the recipe I used for the fondant. It can be found on Cake Central.
