Ricotta Raspberry Almond Cupcakes with Citrus Meringue Frosting
View recipe: Ricotta Raspberry Almond Cupcakes with Citrus Meringue FrostingI made these ricotta raspberry almond cupcakes for “ladies night”.

Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes
View recipe: Ice Cream Cone CupcakesI had a friend ask me to make cupcakes in an ice cream cone about three years ago.

Peanut Butter-Banana Chocolate Cupcakes with Caramel Glaze and a Caramelized Banana Disk
View recipe: Peanut Butter-Banana Chocolate Cupcakes with Caramel Glaze and a Caramelized Banana DiskI actually forgot an ingredient in the cupcake recipe (!), the baking soda… Regardless, the result was a rich, cocoa flavored cupcake with subtle banana and peanut butter flavors and a very fine texture.

View recipe: Recipe: Lychee-Coconut Cupcakes with Ginger-Cream Cheese Frosting, Candied Ginger Sprinkles, and Sugar DecorationsThe lychee and coconut flavors in these cupcakes are subtle, but decidedly tropical.

The frosting was fantastic as expected, when is cream cheese frosting not?…

Recipe: Mini Chili Chocolate Cupcakes with Chili Chocolate Ganache Frosting
View recipe: Recipe: Mini Chili Chocolate Cupcakes with Chili Chocolate Ganache FrostingI made these chili chocolate cupcakes (amongst many other things) for the art show/benefit on Saturday.

I need to…

Recipe: Carrot Ginger Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting and Candied Carrot Sprinkles
View recipe: Recipe: Carrot Ginger Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting and Candied Carrot SprinklesI love ginger-carrot cupcakes and made some changes to the recipe since I last made them. I added the candied ginger for the first time, doubled the ginger, and doubled the cinnamon. I wanted something with a bit more bite. I am pleased with the way they came out. I can really taste the ginger…
