Cupcakes for Everyone!
Hubby and I were visiting family while on our big Midwest road trip this summer and we spent a couple days with “the kids” (aka my younger siblings). My little sister loves to bake. She’s been baking for at least two years and she’s only 12. So when we hang out, we like to bake together. I had just gotten my new cupcake cookbook – Crazy About Cupcakes – and was eager to try another recipe. The first recipe I made from the book (Spiced cupcakes) only made 12 and we wanted about 3-4 dozen cupcakes.
We decided to pick 2 different recipes and double each one, thinking we’d end up with ~4 dozen cupcakes. Well, each of the 2 recipes we chose happened to make about 20 cupcakes so we ended up with around 80! Needless to say, we had cupcakes for everyone! We chose to make peanut butter cupcakes with chocolate frosting and cookies-n-cream cupcakes!
We cheated and used store bought chocolate whipped icing for the peanut butter cupcakes and used this recipe to make the frosting for the cookies-n-cream cupcakes. We crushed up some Oreos and mixed them in as well. 
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
Hilarious Jen! And to use one of my own recipes. Pure genius. 😛

I just can not get over David A’s big cheesy grin. LOL Wonderful looking cupppy cakes.
those are great!! question, how does using white wheat flour affect the cupcakes? whenever i try this with my baking it makes things so dense so i don’t bother with modifying cupcakes anymore.
The King Arthur’s white wheat flour is the only flour I use. I’ve never had a problem with it.
