Cupcake Adventure #1

Hello Everyone,
     Our first cupcake recipe did not sound that appealing. The recipe was Ginger Orange Cupcakes with a Citrus Glaze. Fruit in cupcakes sometimes doesn't sound that good, but could still be good. That being said ginger just sounds flat out NASTY!
      As we were making the cupcakes it smelled sooo good so it raised our hopes on a successful creation! Everything was going well until the Citrus Glaze. As it was bubbling on the stove it was not becoming thick at all. Not paying close attention we decided to add more powdered sugar like a couple tablespoons or so. Finally we took it off the heat and spooned it on to the cupcakes. All we could say was that they looked delicious!
       Finally it was time to try them! The whole family gathered round and tried the cupcakes! One by one grins on their faces appeared and soon their were barely any left. Tomorrow we will be making maple pecan cupcakes! On a scale of 1 to 10 they were a 8! 1 down 66 more cupcake recipes to go!
Sweet Baking,

Sami & Sammy

Introduction!

Hello Everyone! We are Sami and Sammy and we are best friends who both love anything to do in the kitchen. Here is why we decided to do a blog, well we love to bake and cook, we saw the movie Julie& Julia and got inspired to make our own baking challenge. If you saw the movie or read the book then you know that Julie decided to cook her way through Julia Child's cookbook. Well we are doing the same, but we are baking our way through the cookbook called Cupcakes, Cupcakes, and more Cupcakes. There are 67 cupcake recipes to make from now until March 31, 2010. We hope we can acheive our goal in time!
