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. 
I’m sold fuggy chocolately cookies sound amazing
They look so cute, I have yet to try the candy cane kisses.
How cute! I love those candy cane kisses!
I love how the red stripes stay pretty in tact after melting! Looks fabulously festive 🙂
Yea, we really like the candy cane kisses. They have little bits of candy cane in them so there’s a tiny bit of crunch.
Jen- they look great! I love your stripes- THey look so pretty!
I think these were my favorites looking back.
When do you add the vanilla extract? :oP
Thanks for pointing that out Jamie. I updated the recipe. You add the vanilla after the eggs.
