Cupcakes

I whipped up a small batch of cupcakes, and was presented with a challenge: How do you make enough buttercream icing to generously frost 21 cupcakes with about 1 cup of icing sugar? The answer: you don't. That's why my last seven cupcakes ended up with a simple topping of melted chocolate chips. Oh well, who doesn't like chocolate? So here are some cupcakes with piped buttercream alone, with sprinkles, and some with chocolate. I love cupcakes, they are so cute, and everyone can have their own individual serving. They are also a lot quicker and easier to decorate than an entire cake. Here is another important reminder: It is important to have some troubleshooting skills in the kitchen, as conflicts can often arise, especially in the art of cake decorating.
