Cone Method
I learned about the cone method from the truely inspirational blog Cupcake Bakeshop. It’s a great way to put any filling into your cupcake.
If you’ve got someone willing to help, I’ve found that the process goes much faster with a partner. I’ve convinced hubby to help out a couple times. I cut and he fills.
Step 1: After cupcakes have completely cooled, use a sharp knife to cut out a cone.
Step 2: Scoop small amount of filling into cupcake.
Step 3: Replace top onto cupcake. I usually break off the cone part of the top so that it lies flat on the cupcake.
Step 4: Frost cupcake as usual and enjoy the look on everyone’s face when they get a surprise when they bite into your cupcakes!

Browned butter is amazing, especially in cookies. Sounds like another recipe I need to try soon!

You’re definitely going to want to make these after you see what I did with them in a post coming up on Monday 😉
Yeah, browned butter just makes everything taste that much better. I may overuse it just a little bit in my cooking though!

No such thing as overusing browned butter.

Browned butter and cinnamon! Can’t wait to try it!
Between the browning butter and the fresh scent of baked cookies, your kitchen must have smelled marvelous.
Oh my! These look delightful 🙂 I love browned butter too!
