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. 






This sounds so amazing!
Mouth watering 🙂 I love cannolis and I am sure my husband and I would finish this ice cream off quick!!

I bet you would love it. And I’m sure you could find a bakery who would sell you cannoli shells. I couldn’t find anything in Cincinnati and I didn’t have time to make any, so I had to go with store bought…
Genius! I love the idea of this ice cream, I would hoard this for myself!!! Looks absolutely sinful!

Hehe, I know what you mean. Sometimes I hide desserts in the freezer and don’t tell Hubby where they went 😉
It was so delicious. I might try and make it soon.
oh man, i am so trying this!!! I love the filing of cannolis but could take or leave the shell, so I think this would be perfect 🙂

I’m sure you would love this – you could even leave out the shell pieces if you wanted to.
