cravings 2.

this morning i tried making cupcakes by amy sedaris, i have no idea who she is..but apparently she is famous..and her cuppies was voted 2nd best in the city by New York...1st place goes to babycakes NYC.

fairly easy to make...no mess at all...its one of those dump it all recipes...and it worked..i have tried many recipes but this one is abit difference, the taste and texture is different then what i use to make before, i followed exactly as the recipe...the cupcakes came out like little domes...i was abit worried that it will sunk when i take it out...but nooo it didnt!!...hehe..happy camper me...

waited for my little domes to chilled...and tasting begins...hmmm..nice texture..fluffy..and very light... not too sweet. Sedap!..recipe for keeps!...i got 17 out of the recipe...but i guess u could get more if u put less in each cups..the recipe said you could get 24 cuppies.

Amy Sedaris' Cupcakes

1 ½ sticks of unsalted butter
1 ¾ cups of sugar

Beat well, then add:
2 large eggs
2 Teaspoons of pure vanilla
½ teaspoon of salt
2 ½ teaspoons of baking powder
2 ½ cups of flour
1 ¼ cups of milk

Beat well, fill cups, and bake at 375 degrees for 18-20 minutes.

You should get 24 cuppies

now...i have to think about the topping, til now i still havent found the perfect buttercream recipe...somehow buttercream and me are not best of frens...so thats why i always make cream cheese topping or use the ready made frosting from auntie betty. I bought a tube of cherry frosting and i tried it just now....ewwwww no way thats going to my topping...

too tired to think rite now....imm figure it out in the morning...:D
