Recently, I have
found myself REALLY enjoying baking! If
anyone is following me on Pinterest, you will see that I have mostly food and
it is probably split halfway between desserts and other types of food. Ok, yes, you caught me… I have a MAJOR sweet
tooth!
So, I have basically
been finding excuses to bake and NOT keep it all at the house! Several
weeks ago one of my co-workers had a birthday and I decided that I would bring
something in to celebrate. This is when
I had to decide what to make. I had
previously experimented making a couple of cakes for Noah's birthdays. I think I did pretty well! :-)

These were very
complicated and time consuming. I wanted
to do something smaller and perhaps easier.
I chose cupcakes. They are so
much easier to serve to a bunch of people.
So, I went to the store and got some yellow cake mix, some marshmallow
crème and some chocolate buttercream frosting.
After they cupcakes
had cooled, I cut out a whole from the center and filled them with the
marshmallow. Then, I used a decorating
bag and tip to frost them. This was the
end result!
I think they turned
out really well, what do you think? The
people at work loved them and thought they looked great too. :-)
So, I am trying to
take some polls, what is you favorite cupcake flavor/type ? And what is your LEAST favorite thing about
cupcakes?
Last time I answered this question about cookies, I got a lot! I personally like that they aren't crazy sweet. Just the right amount. I don't care for most cake icing because there is so much and it is so sweet. Cupcakes are just the right size. However, I'm not wild about buttercream.
