I've been in the mood to bake like crazy lately. I think it was the birthday that got me craving chocolate cake. But more than anything, I just wanted to share goodies with friends at work. Of course, nobody wanted to touch my goodies (baked or otherwise) while I was sick, so I'm a week late in preparing any treats.
So, in hopes of having a happy Monday at work, I made some chocolate cupcakes today.

Chocolate Cupcakes
***Okay, since I started this post on May 1st, and now it's May 17th, I don't remember where I got the cupcake recipe. But, it had a cup of buttermilk in it and man were the cupcakes delicious... though they dried out a bit after only one day!
Vanilla Frosting
"That's the Best Frosting I've Ever Had"
Oh man. That REALLY WAS the best frosting I've ever had. Don't be scared of the flour goop-- it is incredible. It's light (in flavor, not in calories), and delicious, and despite people's comments on the Tasty Kitchen recipe, I found that the consistency stayed really great over time. The only thing I did differently is I used 1% milk, and I used superfine sugar. I actually hoarded the extra frosting and ate it on strawberries, graham crackers, and my finger (I'm not ashamed) until it was gone. YUM.
