Everyone's guilty pleasure seems to be cupcakes right now. And why not? They're cute, they're full of yummy deliciousness, and they're small enough that we don't feel too guilty about spoiling ourselves. For me this translates into constant challenges to come up with unique flavors (and yes, I CAN make chocolate/bacon/cayenne pepper cupcakes that are to die for!) For my kids and my friends at work it translates into lots of taste testing! Some of my favorite flavors have been white chocolate peppermint cupcakes with cream-cheese peppermint frosting and white cupcakes with lemon filling and cream cheese frosting. I also make some peanut butter cupcakes dipped in dark chocolate ganache and topped with peanut butter cream cheese frosting...possibly even more 'to die for' than the choco-bacon cupcakes! That recipe is thanks to my oldest sister, Viriginia....baking is an exact science, and writing a recipe almost takes a chemistry degree....and she should definitely have a chem degree for as good as she is at throwing ingredients together and turning it into something that is super de-lish. If you have an idea for an interesting flavor combination that you'd like to see wrapped up in a tasty little cupcake package for your next birthday party/business event/snow day then hit me up at lainagrace2@hotmail.com....I'm sure we can work something out!
