I'm off to get my very first spray tan. Wish me luck y'all. My fear is I'll be an oopalumpa orange. 

It's that time again... CUPCAKES

This cupcake was Red Velvet, and I made it in honor of Vday. Appropriate right? My kitchen looked like I had bleed everywhere by the time these bad boys were in the oven.

Maybe I shouldn't mix talk of blood and cupcakes together in the same blog post. My sister, Linny, is probably dead after reading those sentences. Blood Lindsay, bloooood!!:)

 I decided I might put food coloring in all the cupcakes. So much more fun right.

I'll be totally honest, I kinda overcooked these. I didn't hear the timer go off due to whipping up the icing and C laughing his little head off a Finn. However, by the next day, the icing had softened the top layer that had been a little over cooked and all was well. Oh icing, you saved the day. Don't you always.

Red Velvet is one of my least favorite flavors... but for realz these little puppies changed my mind.

Thanks to all the ladies who joined in the fun! So glad they turned out delish for you too!

Thanks for all the comments, emails, twitter shoutouts, etc wishing Canaan a get well better soon! We went to the doc yesterday and he had the beginning signs of a double ear infection and pretty bad cold/cough. They put him on some antibiotics and hopefully the cough will run it's course soon! I was so touched by all of the love sent his way. Blogger friends are the best:)

Cupcake Challenge: CARAMEL APPLE CIDER CUPCAKES

If you're just now joining along, I'm putting myself through a cupcake challenge. 31 flavors of cupcakes. I'm not a baker. So, this is my attempt to improve my skills. So far, so good. The second cupcake I chose was the Caramel Apple Cider.

Helpful hint: put apples in a bowl of Sprite. The Sprite keeps the apples crisp and from turning brown while sitting out:)

 Yes, this is the best invention ever. Thanks to my MIL it made dicing the apples SOO much easier!

 TADA: To me, these were way better than the Raspberry. Husband, however, completely disagrees. Either way, they were delicious. (note: please ignore my dusty piano. The thing catches dust like none other and who has time for cleaning when you got cupcakes to make. amen!)

Here's a screen shot of the recipe. Just visit this PIN to get it yourself. 

The homemade caramel on this bad boy was out of this world. My gosh. delish. Several of you emailed and told me you're joining in! I'd love to see your pics... Here are two ladies who sent me theirs!

Valeries Cupcakes turned out great!

Cayce's were a hit at her churches college group!

The next cupcake I'll be making is the Red Velvet in honor of Valentines. Visit the pin if you want to join along. Send me a picture of you and the cupcakes and I'll share it here! I'll be posting about that cupcake a few days after Valentines day! Happy Baking!

Cupcake Challenge:
Raspberry

The Cupcake Challenge: Cupcake Numero Uno

hahaha = Last nights epic dinner fail.
I tried two new recipes on Pinterest. My gosh they turned out horrible in my opinion. Husband ate every bite and swore it was still good. Isn't he the sweetest?

I was pretty darn frustrated that my dinner was a flop. Determined to make up for it, I made cupcakes.

I found this PIN on pinterest a few weeks back. I really want to enhance my baking skills. I do alright cooking wise, ignoring last nights failure. But, baking isn't my strong suit. Somehow, I always manage to over cook cakes or desserts. Baking is my kryptonite. (fun fact, I just googled "superman's weakness" to check out how to spell kryptonite.HA!)

So, in order to push myself a little I'm doing:

Yep, 31 flavors of cupcakes. I'm going to master them all. No, I will not be making one a day. The recipe makes about 20 cupcakes. If I made a new one everyday, husband and I might die of cupcake overdose. I'm thinking 2 or 3 a month. Extra bonus, I'm going to send the leftovers to friends and family. My popularity should grow leaps and bounds:)

Last night, I made the first one. Husband picked Sour Cream Raspberry Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting. (we aren't going in order, instead, we are going by what sounds the best at the moment, which is a much better way to go about it, right?)

They turned out kind of amazing. Okay, really amazing. Like it's 11 in the morning now, and I may or may not be munching down on one as I type. So so so good!

Here's the recipe:

I stirred my raspberries in a little more so that they really mushed down, and the batter turned purple. So much more fun!

Want to join in the challenge? Email me (katie dot kubler at yahoo dot com) I'll email you a few days before I make the next one, you can email me your images of how your cupcakes turned out (and if you did anything different to the recipe), and I'll include them in my post!) Don't feel like you have to do every cupcake like me, if you miss one or don't like one... that's okay:)

We can better the world through cupcakes together:) Happy Baking!
