German Chocolate Cupcakes


Today, I am making German Chocolate Cupcakes with my own spin to it of course ! So, the cupcakes are done baking and are cooling down. This is the first time that I made these as cupcakes. The batter came out very light and airy.

I have use the black and dark pink zebra stripes liner. They look cute with these liners. I was trying to decide on whether or not to use the liners. I always thought that with the liners they is the easier way of baking, but there is also the thing where the cupcakes actually come out bigger when baking just in the pan.. The cupcakes are cooling now, so in a few hours I will decorate them and post the picture here.

Finally got them finished. On top of the German Chocolate there is home made caramel sauce along with chopped pecans and coconut. These came out a little more messier than I intended, but they came out better than what I expected anyways. I also made some with caramel & pecans only & a few that are caramel & coconut only to accommodate everyone's taste.

Chocolate Chip Muffins

So, I had an attack of the the late night sweet tooth going on last night. I decided to make some Chocolate Chip muffins. I made a small batch this time they were for only 3 people. As you can tell I use the pink princess liners (only kind I could find in the cabinet). They came out to be very moist and to hit the spot for the sweet tooth craving.

The weather here is starting to change now and cooling off so stayed tune to more baking projects coming your way !

Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies

This time I have decided to make Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies with the help of my mom of course. Now, I know some of you are asking why use dark chocolate vs the milk chocolate. Well, the dark chocolate gave the peanut butter just enough sweetness to it since the milk chocolate is way sweeter. Plus, the dark is healthier for you anyways, lol.

The peanut butter dough is a completely different texture vs any other regular chocolate chip cookie dough so these cookies didn't really cook as round as chocolate chip dough normally does.  The taste of these are really rich with the peanut butter that we put in (also added an addition quarter cup of PB) The texture after they baked kind of reminded me of the Sandie cookies.

Simple Devil's Food Cupcakes

So, late last night I decided to make cupcakes. I chose to make Devil's Food cupcakes. They came out really moist and have a great chocolatey taste too. It's been awhile since my last baking project, I am currently waiting for this Florida weather to cool down and have the windows open while I bake until then I will be doing small baking projects. These cupcakes are just going to have powder sugar sprinkled on top of these rather than having frosting on top of them. Of course, like always once I finally sprinkle the sugar on top I will post the finally product picture.
