Mini Halloween Dreams

Again, the most requested cupcake - white with marshmallow buttercream - made for our annual Halloween Bash.

Chocolate Chocolate Cupcakes - OMG (TWD)

I did it! I finally made it on time for a Tuesdays with Dorie post! Here they are - Chocolate Chocolate Cupcakes. These are my idea of the perfect chocolate cupcake. Moist and not too sweet. Of course, I filled mine with Nutella, which I think made them taste even better. The topping is the perfect chocolate ganache - the perfect topping to any chocolate cupcake. Sin-credible!

A Chocolate School Bus Driver turns 51

My sister-in-law recently celebrated her 51st birthday. So of course I had to bake her some cupcakes. She is a chocolate fiend, so I made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate fudge buttercream. And, since she is a school bus driver, I topped them off with some handmade chocolate school buses. Happy Birthday!

Everbody Wants Something

For some reason, these cupcakes seem to be the crowd favorite. They are white cake (very moist, very delish) with marshmallow buttercream. I get a lot of requests for them. These were for the birthday of a co-worker. Cute and simple and SoGood!

Old-Time Favorite

My mom has always been a great baker. But one of the best things she always made was caramel corn. She would make (and still does) big tubs of caramel corn for Thanksgiving and it would be gone by the end of the day. So last weekend, when my friend was visiting, I decided to whip up a batch. And believe me, it was gone the next day.

I Am Rude Because Oprah Says So (TWD)

I was watching Oprah the other day and the topic for the day was rudeness and civility. Let me say, I do not consider myself to be a rude person at all (ok, only when necessary or when I'm really tired). However, there was a quiz in which you answered certain yes or no questions to determine how rude you are. The first question was: Are you chronically late? *sigh* As much as I'd like to deny it, I am chronically late, therefore, I am rude.

And that is why, once again, my TWD is late. I know it was supposed to be posted yesterday, and I baked the pumpkin muffins yesterday, took pictures, and loaded them onto the computer. However, I am waiting for my husband to upload them to the internet before I can get them on here. But in the meantime, you have my explanation, and at least an indication that yes indeed, TWD Pumpkin Muffins are coming to SoGood CCM very soon!

Cranberries and Pumpkin, Again?

Before I made the Pumpkin Cranberry Cookies, I never thought of putting pumpkin and cranberries together. But, I am now convinced that it is like putting peanut butter with jelly, ham with cheese - it's just meant to be!

I made two Pumpkin Coffee Cakes recently, the only difference being one made with walnuts and one made with pecans. Both were absolutely delicious.

*Note: Pictures coming soon (as soon as my husband uploads them onto the internet!)
