cookies 'n' cream delights!



ok, so i tried to experiment with my actual cupcake recipe and be a bit more adventurous....so i made my newly named 'cookies and cream' cupcakes in honour of Rina and Diana's birthday. this time i made the bigger sized cupcakes and they are definitely a lot more substantial and have a lot more room on top for actual decorating so that helps. when i was making the fairy cakes i alternated with putting an oreo cookie and a hershey's cookie and cream kiss at the bottom of each cupcake case. the results were pretty good as the oreo cookie becomes soft but the hershey kiss hardens back into chocolate so next time instead of putting it in the bottom i should drop it into the middle of the batter. then came the decorating which is my favourite part.... i just like coming up with interesting designs, so as these are 'cookie and cream' cupcakes i decided to stick to those for the decorating too. and i love the way they all look in the dish....almost too good to eat....for a moment! i shall enjoy giving these to my two friends to celebrate their birthday and i hope they enjoy them too.
