Crayon cups

My sister made these for the kids last week while we were in TN and I just had to share this cute idea.  These look like peanut butter cups but they are actually crayons that she melted.  She doesn't have kids so she had to go buy crayons...apparently she has never looked under my couch, under the island, in random toy boxes, in drawers, under the driver seat of my car, in the bottom of my purse cause in this house that's where the crayons are and sometimes even in my dogs mouth.   To get started she used her cup cake pan and lined them with cup cake liners, she then sprayed a little bit of vegetable oil into the bottom and sides-not a lot just enough to be able to peel the paper off later-yes you can use pam.   She then took out the crayons, peeled or cut off the crayon paper and broke them into 4-5 pieces. There is no rhyme or reason to the color selection so just go for it.   Place the crayons into the cup cake liners and bake for 250 degrees for 15-20 min depending upon your oven.  They will not be completely melted when you take them out but just like when your baking anything else they will continue to bake when out of the oven.  Let them sit for an hour or so till they have set up and hardened.  You can then peel the paper off and cut crayons to boot.  They are perfect for small hands to hold.   I flipped a few over so you could see the underside.  Trinity loved them she said they were tie dye crayons.  We will be making lots of these as soon as I clean them out from under the couch cushions.
