Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes... Again!

I just had to make these cupcakes again. They were so good the last time I baked them. I think they were the first cupcakes I ever posted on here. Anyway, these are chocolate chip cupcakes with a cookie dough centre/ filling and brown sugar frosting on top! Oh, and there are chocolate chips sprinkled on top to finish them off! They're sooooo good, and I'm not kidding!

Buckeye Cupcakes!

Chocolate and peanut butter is sooooo good, right? So that means that a buckeye cupcake has to be terrific! (A buckeye is basically peanut butter dough covered in chocolate.) I made classic buckeyes, flipped them over and placed them in the centre of chocolate cupcakes as the "filling". Then I frosted the cupcakes with peanut butter icing! Plus, I put chopped up pieces of chocolate on top of every cupcake! Yummmmm.

Carrot Cupcakes!

Yum! Carrot cupcakes. Soooooo good! They're moist cupcakes with vanilla cream cheese frosting. Plus, there's cream cheese filling in the middle! Not to mention a dot of orange fondant on top! For some reason they remind me of thanksgiving... Maybe it's the orange colour; they look pumpkiny! Thanks for checking them out!

Hummingbird Cupcakes!

I was dying to make these cupcakes. Supposedly, they are super sweet, but it's a good sweet. Not too sweet, just right. It's a hummingbird cupcake which has bananas, pineapples, cinnamon, pecans, and honey in it. The vanilla cream cheese frosting makes it a little less sweet, it balances it out!

I was inspired by Georgetown Cupcake for this one! Look at the link... http://www.marthastewart.com/349227/hummingbird-cupcakes# !

Blue Jay Cupcake!

It's a little blue bird! It's made of fondant. The cupcake is a classic vanilla cupcake with butter cream icing. He was fun to make, and he's oh so cute! Happy summer!

Elmo Cupcakes!

Everyone likes Sesame Street! And everyone likes Elmo! He's internationally known! Now, he is in cupcake form. It's just a vanilla cupcake with butter cream icing. Half an Oreo cookie is his mouth, and the marshmallows are his eyes. A dyed mini marshmallow serves as his nose. He's so cute, too cute to eat! Enjoy!

Chocolate Lava Cupcake!

A chocolate cupcake is great, but what's even better? A chocolate cupcake with chocolate in the middle! YUM! I made a chocolate cupcake and filled it with chocolate ganache. The ganache looked like lava spewing out of a volcano! The center is full of chocolate ganache! The cupcake is topped with green/teal butter cream icing with chocolate ganache drizzled on top. It's the perfect cupcake if you are craving chocolate! What do you think?

Fairy Cakes!

Fairy cakes are just what people from the UK call cupcakes! They are the same thing, but they just have a cooler name. I centered this cupcake around the UK. Honestly, I want to live there. I've never been there, but I think that it would be awesome! Anyway, these fairy cakes have Queen Victoria’s sponge cake. It was her favorite kind of cake, so they named it after her. Isn’t that nice? Supposedly, England/UK is known for its strawberries. I never knew that, did you? Because of that, I made strawberry crème filling, butter cream icing, and put a slice of a strawberry on top of every fairy cake.

Pip, pip, cheerio! :)

Snickerdoodle Cupcakes!

A cookie and a cupcake? WHAT? Yes, it is true. This is a snickerdoodle cupcake. AMAZING, right? RIGHT. It's a yellow cupcake with cinnamon butter cream icing and crushed, homemade snickerdoodle on top! It was really good! So moist and sweet but not too sweet. The perfect combination!


What have you missed?

Since the last time I blogged, I made two more cupcakes. Unfortunately, I failed to take pictures before they were all eaten... Well, I made rainbow cupcakes and s'mores cupcakes!


The rainbow cupcakes were white cupcakes with rainbow-colored layers (thanks to food colouring!) with vanilla butter cream and jimmies on top! They were AH-DOR-ABLE!


The s'mores cupcakes I made were devil's food cupcakes with crushed graham cracker and melted chocolate at the bottom. On top was a marshmallow icing, more like a ganache, with a piece of a chocolate bar on top! YUM!


I'll try to make more, but I've been busy! Thanks!
