Cupcakes x 2

These tasty little morsels are rootbeer float cupcakes, and they're actually surprisingly true to life as far as the flavor goes. I don't drink soda too often, but when I do I love rootbeer - so these were awesome for me. The cake is moist and a little airy, and the frosting is sweet and creamy. Yum.

The recipe is here, courtesy of the ever-awesome Bittersweet. I sent most of these to work with my boyfriend last week and they were a bit hit. I followed the recipe for the most part, with just a few changes. I subbed applesauce for some of the oil, halved the frosting (I still had plenty), and left off the ganache drizzle because I was feeling lazy. Mine didn't rise too high, but they didn't sink, either - always a plus. I think I under-filled my muffin tins a little bit, though, because I got 15 cupcakes instead of 12. No one complained about the extras.


These are less exciting but just as delicious. Golden vanilla cupcakes with chocolate buttercream, both recipes from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World. I made them to take to class today, because college students are excellent for getting rid of excess baked goods. These were excellent, and well-loved by all. We are by and large a bunch of geeks, so the Spiderman wrappers went over particularly well.

Valentine's Day cupcakes could be any cupcake made with love for your sportsbook Valentine. However, if you want an extra special Valentine's Day cupcake, I've got a few ideas that I'll be sharing in the next week to give you plenty of time to get ready to make them.
My first Valentine's Day cupcake idea for this year is the root beer bet nfl float cupcake. It's the picture of romance from a simpler time.
I would strongly recommend that if you choose this cupcake, you accompany it with a cute homemade card cut out of red construction paper.

Think quick, Sportsbook what is that one childhood sweet treat that you hold dear to your heart up to this day? Mine is a chocolate cupcake topped with a thick layer of dark chocolate icing. That cupcake was my one of two (the other being a brownie) favorite sweets to take to school. Sometimes classes would run too long that I would scuttle hastily to eat my cupcake! online betting One day, because of my rush to eat it, I dropped it smack on its crown! Picture a five year old holding an empty cupcake wrapper staring down forlornly at the dusty school grounds where her day’s sugary indulgence had just landed. march madness Though I can smile now at that memory, at that time it was pretty gut-wrenching (pun intended) to lose my precious cupcake!
After finding much success with Brownies, it seems befitting to do the same with cupcakes… rediscover that piece of childhood nostalgia that evokes a feeling of utter chocolate contentment.

First off all I would like to thank you for that great post. It's very interesting to read your posts. As I can see, a lot of people here knows much about ED treatment maybe they can help me. For a long time I can't decide what is better: to buy viagra online, to buy cialis online or to buy levitra online? I found this online pharmacy to buy all this things, so can somebody help me to make a decision? IMHO I should buy generic viagra

I'm a serial blogger and I find blogs like this are extremely beneficial when looking for generic viagra. It truly helps when you track down a great source from a trustworthy website. The prices are wonderful as well, particularly for generic cialis.
