Happy Birthday!!
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 really love how easy it is to put some variety into blondies! Yum, yours look great!
Yum, love these! It was the first thing off of a food blog that I’ve made. It’s also the recipe that started me on the path of being the #1 fan of all things blondie!

Yea I can’t believe I’ve never made them before!
Blondies are one of my favorite things to eat and make!
I freaking LOVE blondies – and I really like the combo of mix-ins you used!
Thanks for the great idea! I’m making some blondies with Andes Mint baking chips for the lake tomorrow.
Great looking blondies. I love how versatile they are.
Just made these today! Delicious!
