I've been eyeing this recipe for a really long time. Then I decided to wait and indulge with my sister. We did, on Easter day. The recipe is {here} and our delicious, home-made cupcakes are below. :D
Started out with the cookie dough - smooth and fluffy, and so very yummy (ate some off the bowl just like that!)
Dipped the dough into the batter - ready for the oven
All puffed up! The cookie-cupcake combo was a smashing hit. Batter turned out slightly thick, so you can see the cookie on the top (it was supposed to have melted away to the middle of the cupcake)
I added the Chocolate frosting - DIVINE!
These were a-w-e-s-o-m-e. One suggestion would be to use Chocolate cake mix in place of the Yellow cake mix and make it an all-Chocolate or double Chocolate treat.
I must admit - I've thoroughly enjoyed the past week of downpour, cloudy skies, and even a rainbow or two.
There’s a certain musical melancholy about the rains – it’s gloomy without the blues. In fact, it makes me rather chatty [ask my husband ;)] and energetic.
So this time around, besides the ginger tea and lots of music, I was in the mood for some home-baked cupcakes.
These little puppies are melting-in-your-mouth delicious!
Living in Northern California and loving it. I heart - good books, conversations and desserts, the ever changing seasons, playing scrabble (and finishing a whole crossword someday), yoga, music and meditation - and writing all about it. :)
