Black Forest Cupcakes for Frosting for the Cause
Have you guys seen the blog Frosting for a Cause? From their about page
Once a day, every day for a year you will be treated to a new and talented blogger who will showcase their home-made, hand-decorated cookies or cupcakes together with their recipes. Almost everyone, everywhere, has been touched by cancer in one form or another. The guest bakers will also share in a very personal manner with readers of Frosting for the Cause, about a woman in their life who had to face this terrible disease head-on.
The bakers/bloggers who participate all agree to donate $25 to the Canadian or American Cancer Society. As an added bonus, my company does donation matching, so my donation got doubled!
You should definitely check it out. Especially if you want the recipe for these Black Forest Cupcakes. I’ve provided the guest post for them today including the recipe for this cute little guy.
One Year Ago: Chinese Restaurant Almond Cookies







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. 






Although the mousse didn’t hold up nicely on top of the cupcake, the taste is really what matters most. Since everyone loved them, then they are a success!
How convenient to have the frosting and cupcake be one in the same. I think the cupcake looks great.
Oooh! My sister and I are forever in search of the best chocolate cupcake recipe and this looks like a must-try! I love that the batter and frosting are the same… And they’re so pretty too 🙂
Sues
these look good. I kinda want to make extra and pipe some inside the cupcake too….
That sounds awesome! Chocolate mousse and cupcake….I’m in!
I am making these as soon as humanly possible =)
