Cupcakes 2: The Frosting

Sep 27, 2007

I know that you were just dying to see how the frosting went on those cupcakes and I can't bear to disappoint, so...

Yarsh...I find sifting sugar (and flour!) highly tedious and boring. Especially because, with this frosting, all the sugar is dissolved into hot milk, so siftage seems a little superfluous.

And, if you're really excellent, like me, you can add twice as much butter as is necessary! Jeezy pete, I really need to pay more attention. Tasted good, though!

Step three_mixation

This picture has 3 of my favourite things, ever in it: chocolate frosting (mmmm!), the KitchenAid, and a container of Morton Salt. Now, before you think I'm some kind of freak for luuurving salt, let me explain. 'Tisn't the product inside that I love, it's the packaging...if you don't know what I'm talking about, check it out the next time you're in the supermarket. It is rather pretty, especially for salt.

Aren't they pretty? I think so.

And thusly ends the saga! I hope you enjoyed it, and if you'd like the recipe for the frosting (It's Ghirardelli...OMG), just ask!

Drooling all over again,
Charlotte
