Black Forest Cupcakes for Frosting for the Cause
Have you guys seen the blog Frosting for a Cause? From their about page
Once a day, every day for a year you will be treated to a new and talented blogger who will showcase their home-made, hand-decorated cookies or cupcakes together with their recipes. Almost everyone, everywhere, has been touched by cancer in one form or another. The guest bakers will also share in a very personal manner with readers of Frosting for the Cause, about a woman in their life who had to face this terrible disease head-on.
The bakers/bloggers who participate all agree to donate $25 to the Canadian or American Cancer Society. As an added bonus, my company does donation matching, so my donation got doubled!
You should definitely check it out. Especially if you want the recipe for these Black Forest Cupcakes. I’ve provided the guest post for them today including the recipe for this cute little guy.
One Year Ago: Chinese Restaurant Almond Cookies







I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






Those look so good, now we don’t have to wait unitl the GS are selling there cookies again 🙂
Yum! They look delicious and your pictures are great.
I made these a while back and loved them too! It’s nice to be able to make your own any time you want!
Beautiful photos. You did an awesome job on these.
I’m so glad you made these! I noticed these on another blog and had them on my “to make” list. Your pictures may motivate me to make them this weekend!
They look terrific and I’ve never been one to eat girl scout cookies.

Ive been wanting to make these – they look crazy tasty!

Great job – my hubby’s hoping I will give these a go.
Samoas are my favorite too! I’m totally making some this weekend!!
What a great way to enjoy Samoas when there are no cookies left!
Yum!
These look great!! Although I don’t eat coconut, I’ll have to make them for my hubby and coworkers sometime.
Not sure if you got my email last weekend but I was wondering if you know of any must-visit bakeries or eateries in Boston. We will be vacationing in Boston in a couple weeks. Thanks!!!
