Cupcake Question

Friday, October 26, 2007 at 08:50am

I’m going to make some apple cupcakes this weekend for a family dinner. What flavor frosting do you think would be the best? Vanilla (which would add an a la mode feel)? Ginger? Cinnamon? Apple pie spice (cinnamon and nutmeg-y)?

    I wanted to try apple cupcakes with a cinnamon brown sugary crumble on top and then a drizzle of white icing. Like the pumpkin muffins at Dunkin Donuts. But I’ve never baked anything without using a recipe and I’m scared.

    NOT A CHOICE, SOOSAN!

    (I did that last time, and it was awesome)

    Oh, I see, it’s multiple choice. My drool is telling me Cinnamon.

    Cranberry frosting?

    I say something with cream cheese! But then, I would eat my own boogers if they had cream cheese frosting on them.

    Okay, not really. I’m dry heaving a little just typing that. But I think my point has been made? Cream cheese frosting = heaven.

    Laura, I agree. Last time I made apple cupcakes, I did a cream cheese frosting with drizzled caramel and we all nearly came to blows over sharing them. Bliss.

    This time I’m going to attempt a swiss meringue buttercream, although my last foray into smbc did not go well. It literally tastes like melted vanilla ice cream. Oh man.

    ginger sounds good to me!

    Don’t I always, Soosan?

  15. Soosan on Friday, October 26, 2007 at 12:13 pm

    yes. you do.

  16. Laura on Friday, October 26, 2007 at 2:19 pm

    Wow. You’re like a stalker’s wet dream. I might just fly out from Colorado to get my hands on your cupcakes!

  17. freakgirl on Friday, October 26, 2007 at 2:31 pm

    DIRTY!!!

    and you’re always welcome.

    I’m with Cindi about vanilla and cinnamon!

  19. freakgirl on Friday, October 26, 2007 at 3:42 pm

    I agree. If the SMBC comes out, I will put in vanilla, some cinammon, then tint it orange (for Halloween!).

    Given the total boozefest of a weekend I just had, can you do a Gin & Tonic frosting?

  21. freakgirl on Sunday, October 28, 2007 at 8:13 pm

    Gin and tonic sweetie darling, mwah mwah!

    That about covers it. It was the theme of my weekend.
