No matter what your political views, you have to admit that today is a historic day in America. I made some festive cupcakes to celebrate the day. No new recipes here. I followed the yellow cake and chocolate frosting recipes that I used when I sent cupcakes to some friends and family members last year.
I also made these festive funfetti by adding a tablespoon each of red and blue sprinkles to the batter before baking them.

If you ever want to try them, we could make a baking date out of it. There are plenty of variations of flavor combinations to be tried.
Oh great tip. I stored mine at room temperature.
Let us know how they turn out for you.
I know what you mean about beginners luck. I might be apprehensive to try them again since our first shot was so successful.
Isn’t it so fun baking with other bloggers?
