this cake rocks!

cool eh?!
I, sadly cannot take credit though.
My darling daughter made it along with her dad for her 12th birthday!
I am tickled that she enjoyed making and did so well!!
Happy Birthday my Mimi!

chocolate-mint cupcake

So as you know..or maybe you don't - I LOVE chocolate! 
And right next to that would be mint.
Chocolate mint..mmmm!
This baby here is my new favorite! 
If your following this blog you will hear me say that a lot!
I cannot help myself!  This cupcake is moist - like WOW moist.  The cake is a chocolate mint and the frosting is a light butter cream with mint.  It may sound like a lot of mint, but trust me it's not.  No mouthwash taste here!  Just a perfect balance of two amazing flavors!

cookies n cream cheese cake's

That is a mouth full!...cookies n cream cheese cake cupcakes.  But, they are an incredible mouth full at that!  We L.O.V.E these!
This is not really a cupcake in the sense that it has any real cake,
but is more of a cheese cake.
My hubby's favorite and they seem to be an overall new favorite!

I would love s'more!

My new recipe: S'mores cupcakes! 
Isaac wanted them for his birthday and so here they are. 
I have to admit I did not LOVE them.  They were very tasty though, I think warm out of the oven was really good!  I do have a few tricks up my sleeve for next time though :)  

I think my favorite part about these is a hidden layer of graham cracker crumbs, butter and brown sugar...mmm gooey goodness!

Struessel cupcakes

Tastey?..yes! 

crumbly goodness?..check!

a new fav?..you betcha!

I typically don't fall over for this type of treat but my husband does so meet the struessel cupcake!  I love the crumbly topping drizzled with a sweet glaze, the textures together are, well, sweet...literally!

Pineapple upside down cupcakes

I L.O.V.E pineapple...so it would be correct to assume that pinapple upside down would be one of my favorites, and it is. 

This was a new recipe and boy was it great! 

The cake was super moist and full of flavor and the whip cream on top was a perfect finish!

Boston Creme Pie cupcake

Three words - Boston. Creme. Pie.  WOW! okay maybe four!

This cupcake is AH-MAZING!  Really. 
I have my favorites and this one would be at the top.
If you don't know me or anything about me - know this, I love chocolate!  As in, it is wrong how much I love chocolate!  The best thing about this cupcake is, of course, the chocolate!  Okay, technically it is a chocolate ganache but I am not a techy gal so we can just call it what it is - rich, dark, finger-lickin good - chocolate!  The vanilla creme center and the moist cake don't hurt either ;)
