Rub my belly please.
I like to fetch my ball and then roll around with it. Why chew my ball while standing when I can do it while lying down?

Marble Chocolate Turkey Cupcakes – Thanksgiving Part 2
| Uncategorized
This was inspired by a holiday coupon book, with pictures of Betty Crocker creations. The cupcakes are marbled vanilla and chocolate (made with cocoa powder for a dark chocolate flavor), with vanilla pudding mix. The frosting is silky smooth dark chocolate. The turkey feathers are piped semi-sweet and white chocolate, with a Hershey’s kiss head.
Making both batches of cupcakes made me late to Thanksgiving dinner, but I was a baker-obsessed.
Pumpkin Brown Butter Cupcakes – Thanksgiving Part 1
| Uncategorized
You know that yummy sweet-savory buttery goodness that lines the layers of a cinnamon bun? Well, imagine that captured in a cupcake! Here, browned butter is incorporated into a pumpkin-sage cake, with browned butter icing on top. I’ve made the icing into a thicker consistency so that it holds form (for easier transport to Thanksgiving dinner). However, with the addition of more milk, this icing can drip off the edges of the cupcake for a nice gooey effect as well.
I have been working on my chocolate tempering work, so these cupcakes are topped with a bit of white chocolate flair.
