Recap of Last Year’s Cookies and Cupcakes
I made quite a few cookies and cupcakes this year even considering all the bars and brownies I made. Here’s my top 5 from the year.
My quest to find a perfect white cupcake ended with these White Cupcakes. They don’t dome up, but I’ve decided, that’s ok. Domed cupcakes look the same as flat cupcakes when they’re frosted anyways.
These Oreo Cupcakes are amazing. If you haven’t made them yet, go buy some Oreos and make them soon. Hands down my favorite thing I’ve ever made.
I was also glad to find a great Chocolate Frosting recipe. I love how dark and rich is it.
I love M&Ms. Add them to cookie batter and they get even better. Add them to chocolate cookie batter and it’s amazing. These Chocolate M&M Cookies are another favorite. And with festive M&Ms you can make them for any occasion.
My sister and I made these Homemade Oreos and really enjoyed the flavor. Can you tell I’ve been big into Oreos this year?

The lemon raspberry cake looks awesome! I wish I could bake like you!
Yours is my new favorite blog! Everything looks absolutely delicious, I will have to make that Lemon Raspberry cake sometime 🙂 Oh, and I live in Wisconsin but visited Boston for the first time last year and LOVED it! Keep posting yummy recipes, have a great weekend!
I am planning on making the chocolate overdose cake for my hubby’s birthday coming up in a couple of weeks. I wanna add a white chocolate mousse. So, I’m thinking about cutting the cake in half and adding it there…what do you think? Would that work? =)
Ashley – I think that would work just fine. Let me know how it turns out.
