Cupcakes!! :D

Cupcakes with smiley faces? You're adorable.

Lol they are rainbows! But thank you

If you want sharper separation of areas for multi-coloured cupcakes, get some edable paper and put it in between

I tried the paper to separate the colors but I actually liked it when they blended in better..

Oh ... you really meant 'cupcakes'. :o

Well yeahhh silly

I love the way those cupcakes look, and I'm sure that they taste even better.

I have this awesome recipe for no-egg microwave chocolate cake that everybody I've made it for has loved. Takes like 5 minutes max preparation time and only 4 minutes to cook, and it comes out pure deliciousness.

That sounds pretty awesome but I do everything in my power to not use a microwave.. In fact mine hasn't worked for over a month now.

I make a tres leches cake my girlfriend demands on her birthday. Bake your favorite white or yellow cake, let it cool and take a fork and poke holes all over the surface of the cake. Pour a mixture of one can sweetened condensed milk, one pint of heavy cream, and one pint of whole milk over the cake and let is sit and soak in the fridge over night. Take it out the next day, whip a quart of heavy cream and a teaspoon of vanilla extract until you've got peaks and layer that on top of the cake. Chill for an hour and serve.

Sounds AMAZING! I will have to try this. Thanks!

Damn. Nick's a lucky guy indeed.

Seriously?!? I think most of the people on here are bakers. :joint:

haha didn't think about that kind of baking.

Cookies and Cheesecakes I seem to do well with. I can also make a pretty good Red Velvet Cake (scratch). I have an issue burning the pie crust along the edges. I tried using the tin pie covers and that seems to help a little. I have a thermometer in the oven so that doesn't seem to be the issue. Once I get that correct it's pecan pie fest (chocolate, bourbon, regular)!

I'm excited to try that Pecan Pie Recipe! Thanks

I thought this thread was you professing your love for Will E.

However, seeing you mean baking, I do not bake as I tend to like to fix meals. Breakfast, lunches, or dinners. I also like to make snack foods and come up with little creative ideas when I get the kitchen culinary itch.

I actually love to prepare meals too! I will post some pics of my food food..

Awesome, send me some cupcakes

They probably wouldn't last in the mail :o

I used to bake a whole lot more than I do now.
We're trying to eat a lot better, so that means I can't ruin it all with cookies and cupcakes anytime I get the urge.

I have found an INCREDIBLE recipe for a lightened-up version of peanut butter pie!! I made this one a few days ago, and I'm going to make TWO tonight. One with a chocolate graham cracker crust, the other one regular.

That looks AWESOME! You should inbox me the recipe for it!

BBQ Beer Chicken with home made potato wedges.
A whole bunch of food that I made for a party we had. (Blue cheese crumbles over hand made bruschetta with honey drizzle, cheddar cheese with mini sausages wrapped in a crossaint, 5 different types of salsas, grapes, strawberries, marshmallows and pretzels to dip into the chocolate fondue fountain and a whole lot of other goodies.
The third picture is of some strawberries I dipped & some buckeyes that I made.. I arranged the pic to look like "My Big Fat Fruit Wedding" lol
and the last picture is of stuffed bell peppers next to a homemade loaf of fresh baked heart shaped bread! Nom Nom Nom!

You said it, I didn't.





OK FINE! Here it is.

* 5oz reduced fat cream cheese, softened
* 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
* 1/3 cup reduced fat peanut butter
* 8oz fat free frozen whipped topping (Cool Whip)
* reduced fat graham cracker pie crust
* Hershey's Chocolate syrup

Beat cream cheese and confectioner's sugar together in medium bowl.
Mix in peanut butter and beat until smooth.
Fold in whipped topping.
Spoon into graham cracker pie crust, cover and refrigerate until firm (2-3 hours).
Drizzle with Chocolate syrup before serving.

Enjoy the deliciousness!

Very simple, and incredibly tasty!

I'll give it a shot sometime, but I'll probably substitute almond butter for peanut butter. Almond butter is the shit! :thumbsup:

I like to watch cupcake wars.... seriously I do

I know Nikki I was just kidding, a cupcake must be eaten fresh when its warm and moist. I don't like bricks:1orglaugh

What's the difference between cupcakes and muffins? Are cupcakes just sweeter and more colorful or what?

It's prepared a little differently, I think muffins have a thicker batter with different ingredients, a cupcake is just cake mix made in a smaller form. i'm not a baker or anything but muffins have blueberries and stuff.

I think cupcakes are smaller and have frosting. Muffins are larger and don't have a bunch of crap gooped on top. I could be wrong, though.
