Happy Birthday!!

Thursday, September 27, 2007

We were going for a pub crawl to celebrate Hubby’s college roommate’s birthday. I offered to bring cupcakes. He loves coffee flavored things, so I had quite a few options when I flipped through Crazy about Cupcakes. I decided on the Carmel Mocha cupcakes.

As usual, when I start baking, I get really excited and tend to bake way too much. Since I wanted to make the Carmel Mocha cupcakes “full-dairy” for the birthday boy, I wanted to make some cupcakes that I would be able to eat. I decided to use some strawberry preserves that we had paired with French Vanilla cupcakes. When I make two batches, I tend to make one from scratch and one from a box mix.

Everyone said the Carmel Mocha cupcakes were great, and I loved the strawberry filled cupcakes. Overall it was a baking success!

I am sending this to my friend Julie. She is always trying to come up with ways to get her hubby to eat veggies. Genius!

Yea, I’m glad my hubby eats veggies. I’m sure that if I had used the right chocolate these would have been awesome. They were just okay due to the unsweetened chocolate…

When I tried these last year I was so disappointed. Yours look much better. I think your “bumping up” helped to create a better product. Well done.
