This week's assignment was cupcakes. Clara chose the recipe and suggested decorating the cupcakes for Halloween. She has 2 great blogs and one is dedicated to cupcakes. You have to check them both out. She is very creative, has left me numerous nice comments and has two adorable bunnies. The recipe for these "cuppycakes" are posted on her blog or if you have Dorie's cookbook... you can find it on page 215-217.My family is so totally cake and candied out from my son's b-day and trick or treating for Halloween this past week. But I didn't want to miss these. So, I decided to halve the recipe and forge ahead. I am very glad that I chose not to skip.
After reading some of the comments from others who made them earlier in the week, I feared that they were going to be dry and not very tasty. Not mine. DELICIOUS. I will say that they were not super moist, but they had a good chocolate flavor and were not dry by any means. Maybe that is because I added an entire egg? Whatever the case, we certainly enjoyed them.
On a separate note, I decided to switch my cooking blog from wordpress to blogger. After using wordpress for several months, I decided that I really don't like it and think that blogger is much easier to use (at least for me). I will slowly be moving my recipes from there to here.
