Hummingbird Cupcakes
I know, I know. Where have I even been? Ultimately, things have been pretty crazy around the household. School is now over, but things are just as hectic. Thank goodness baking helps me cope with stress! I tried to make some pretzel bites, but that didn’t go over very well.
They looked like unicorn turds, and they weren’t tasty at all. Second batch still didn’t come out right, so I gave up on it. They tasted all right, but they still looked like unicorn turds. I guess it just wasn’t meant to be!
12 Frosted (Vanilla) Cupcakes With 4oz of Butter
I refound my love for baking back in September; I didn’t have my shiny D90 so those recipes will just be memories. Soon after I began baking heavily again, I found out that one 9×2″ round cake pan will yield about a dozen cupcakes. This meant that a standard layered cake recipe would give me two dozen, the normal dose for a box cake. But I just couldn’t bring myself to using 1 stick of butter for a dozen cupcakes and then another stick of butter for the frosting. It just seemed like so much butter for such little desserts.
