Confession #2

I couldn't resist the warm sun and the green grass today. No cooking for me, who whats to be stuck in the kitchen when you could be playing in the park with the kiddos! I mean Papa Johns and a Thirst Buster. Sounds like the perfect dinner to me. The only thing that could have made it better is if my hot hubby was there.

Confession...my kids are the cutest even with their wind blown hair! I know you are saying no yours are but take another look. Mine are cuter:)

Cupcake #2

I confess I had some trouble with this cupcake. Not so much the cupcake but the frosting. I needed to make a cupcake that wasn't chocolate, but it was for a young girl so I didn't want to do carrot or red velvet so this is what I came up with a raspberry cupcake with butter cream frosting. My recipe said it made 2 doz but it ended up making more like 3. After all of them were baked I worked on the frosting and that is where the trouble began. I don't like the taste of butter cream frosting I think it is bland. The cupcake tasted good but the frosting was missing something....flavor. Having used all my fresh raspberries I dumped the rest of my raspberry jelly into it. Oh man did that change the whole taste...much better. Although it wasn't chocolate it was still pretty yummy.

Cupcake #1

This is a Snickers Cupcake. I make 2 dozen of these for a girl in my wards 17th birthday! It is a chocolate cupcake with a caramel whip cream frosting! I know your mouth is watering....well here is the kicker, I cut the center out and added homemade caramel and snickers on the inside. I garnished it with more of that Delicious homemade caramel and some chopped snickers. This cupcake was too die for!!
