CUPCAKES MADE FROM SCRATCH

These are the beautiful cupcakes I made in my cupcake class today.  They were a lot of fun and we learned that we can do anything to create something with frosting and Halloween treats.  So give it a try and have a lot of fun with it, just like we did.

This is an excellent " BANANA CUPCAKE"  The recipe is as follows:
1/2 cup butter                                                     This recipe is one that you will need to be careful with.
1 1/2 cups sugar                                                  Follow the directions closely.  Mix the butter and sugar
2 eggs                                                                 together with the eggs and mix will in your Bosch.  Then
3 banana's                                                           add the banana's which you have mashed on a plate before
1 tsp. vanilla                                                        adding.  After they are added put your vanilla in the mixture.
1 cup sour milk                                                    Add your soda to your sour milk, in a cup.  Then sift your
1 tsp. soda                                                           flour, baking powder and salt together.  Alternate your
2 cups of white flour                                             flour mixture with your milk mixture a little at a time into
1 tsp. baking powder                                            your banana cake mixture.  Pour into muffin tins.  About
1 tsp. salt                                                             2/3 full.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes.  Frost!

This are our "CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES",  The recipe is as follows:
2 cups sugar                                                  
1 cup oil                                                               Add all ingredients into your Bosch bowl except the water,
2 eggs                                                                  mix all other ingredients together until all is mixed well.                                                                                          
1 cup sour milk or buttermilk                                Then add the water. Mix well but not to much.  Pour into
1 tsp. vanilla                                                         tins. Bake muffins on 350 degrees. Cook for 15 minutes.
2 cups flour                                                          Or until done. To make sure it is done stick a tooth pick
1/2 cup cocoa                                                      through the middle of the cupcake.   It is done when  it                                            
2 tsp. baking soda                                                comes out clean.
1 tsp. salt
1 cup hot water

the chocolate cupcakes were delicious.  Everyone at my class enjoyed them and had a lot of fun creating their own Halloween cupcake with different decorations.  We used a cream cheese frosting.  To  make it you will need the Bosch with the wire whips in the bowl.  Add 1-6 ounce cream cheese,  1 stick of butter, or 1/2 cup.   Make sure these two ingredients are soft.  Add 4 cups of powdered sugar and 1 tsp. of vanilla.  Mix well, if it to stiff add a little drop of milk.   Enjoy they are so fun.
