I found the way to replicate one of my favorite treats from Wrights Dairy in Rhode Island. It came as I was making these cupcakes yesterday! I am so excited to have "cracked the code". I now know how to make the infamous radio bars!!
Okay, it was selfish of me not to share. Please send special praise to my BFF, shelah, and the mastny family vault of recipes! you could make them in radio bar shape I just made them as mini and reg size cupcakes!
Mastny Wedding Cake

Coconut milk icing:
3/4 c. butter
1 1/2 lbs powdered sugar
1/8 t. salt
1 t. vanilla
1 t. almond
1/3 c. coconut milk
Cream butter, slowly add powdered sugar, thin with coconut milk and extracts.
1 can of Dark chocolate fudge (store bought) frosting.
Place in bowl and microwave 20 seconds- until melted but still thick. Coat cupcake with a very generous layer of coconut frosting. Chill for a few minutes (I threw mine in the freezer for 2-3 min a couple at a time as I worked). Remove. Dip in the melted fudge frosting- up to cupcake paper edge. Sprinkle with sprinkles. Let sit until the frosting is set! MMMMM!!

I've had cupcakes on the brain now for quite some time. It's taking a lot of self restraint not to pack ourselves all up into the car and drive to Wright's RIGHT now. Thanks for the tips.
Anything with coconut milk is worth making. Over and over again. Those look amazing!
