My sweet little recipe boxes from Fab.com arrived today -- Small Bites, and Cupcakes. I was eager to dive right in, but a little nervous, because baking just isn't my thing. Ask my boyfriend how those "ready to bake" cookies turned out the other day... ugh. But I was determined, absolutely set on making my cupcakes and frosting from scratch. Birds & blokes, I was not disappointed.
I sprinkled a little bit of orange ginger sugar on the "taste testers" -- heavenly, just perfect and delicious and fantastic and incredible.
I won't kid you, these were not easy to prepare. I've never made cupcakes from scratch, but aside from accidentally using 4 eggs instead of the called-for 2, I did alright. But the frosting? That is a true exercise in patience. And, arm strength. But it paid me back ten-fold in the end, with the most delicious cupcakes in the world. I'll post the recipe soon, but until then, drool in envy at the sight of my gorgeous creation.
