So this blog is about my baking adventures, right? This is one that Trevor and I had this weekend!!! I thought I would share because we had a lot of fun.
Trevor wanted to cook something with me - mainly so he could do his favorite part - break the egg. I found a recipe online that makes only 2 cupcakes!!! PERFECT. A new blog that I found called How Sweet It Is. Her recipe is here. So as it was raining outside we got to work making our treats for the afternoon. Trevor helped me with it all - the breaking of the egg, measuring, mixing and decorating.
Our course waiting for our masterpiece to be done is always a bit challenging and we have to check and see how it's doing in the oven.
These are the finished products! Not bad and that's all we wanted to eat this afternoon anyway!
So let's get to decorating. I hadn't thrown out the icing I had been using this week so I had several colors already made up for Trevor to choose from. Of course it was very important to test each color to see how they tasted first.
And Mom's icing always turns Trevor's face a different color! The price we pay for good icing.
Trevor has never decorated his own treats. Boy did he have fun squeezing the icing bags just like Mom and putting on all the sprinkles himself.
Ta-Da! Our work is done. By the time he was done there was icing all over his pants, face, hands, countertops. What a mess but it was well worth it. He had a blast doing it.
They are very pretty, don't you think? I had a few other colors but Trevor just wanted to eat those and not decorate with them.
The cupcakes were quite YUMMY!!!
This was something fun to do in the afternoon that didn't take very long. I'm sure we will try it again sometime!
Happy Baking!
