Cupcakes!

Wendi and I made these yummy cupcakes this weekend. I got the recipe for both the cake and frosting from Katie L. (thanks, Katie!). And let me just tell you, they were delicious! The cake was a "light" chocolate, and by that I do not mean light in calories, but light in color. The taste and texture were both a lot like my mom's Texas sheet cake. But the frosting for these was seriously so good. I usually wipe off all frosting, even if it is only a thin layer. But this time I ate it all (and there was a lot!). I think all of you need to get the recipe from Katie L. I would share it, but since it is one of her family recipes I am not sure if she wants it posted. I am going to try a double layer cake with the recipe. Hmmm.... Who has the next birthday?

We (Wendi & I) have sort of been on this cupcake-kick lately. We're all about finding the best recipes, frostings, and perfecting the decorating. Unfortunately I didn't have much to decorate these yummy cupcakes, but M&M's & jimmies work, I guess. I'll probably be posting more of our creations. If anyone has any spectacular recipes let me know. Tonight I am trying a mango cupcake with pineapple frosting. I'll let you know how it turns out!




Ignore the bad lighting. My digital camera is too automated to take great photos of food. And, I promise the cake plate isn't dirty... it just looks that way in the picture. Ha ha.
