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!

Your blog has a huge influence on my hunger, I suddenly want some cookies! Do they have special bags of M&M’s with the pink ones? Very cute cookies!

Thanks Clara! These cookies are SO GOOD. I could make another batch today… maybe I will…

Sorry Steph. Yes, there are special bags of pink M&Ms. Most grocery stores and CVS-type places have them.
