Roopa I have a few people to make cupcakes for this week, and they told me to be creative, so I decided to give PB&J cupcakes a try. It’s pretty much my favourite so I figured I really couldn’t go wrong. I used a vanilla base with a peanut butter white chocolate icing, and filled … More PB&J Cupcakes
Roopa After the success of the gluten free banana muffins, I wanted to try adding peanut butter to them. I also wanted to make them a little bit healthier, so I replaced the butter and applesauce with peanut butter. You really can’t go wrong with banana and peanut butter; it’s a pretty spectacular combination. They … More Gluten Free & Vegan Peanut Butter Banana Muffins
Roopa I have been meaning to try some healthyish gluten free baking for ages, and FINALLY invested in some xanthan gum. I figured I’d start with banana muffins – they have a lot of fruit, and bananas act as good binders as well. Between the bananas and xanthan gum, I was pretty confident I could … More Gluten Free Banana Muffins
CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES WITH WHIPPED CREAM TOPPING. Roopa I made a batch of these and covered them in whipped cream and raspberries. Simple, but delicious. I always add vanilla and a little bit of granulated sugar to my whipped cream, which I think makes a big difference.

I was lazy to make icing so I just topped them with some whipped cream (that … More Butterbeer Cupcakes: Version 3

I added chocolate chips in lieu of cocoa – I wanted this to be a dominantly peanut butter cookie, so I didn’t want to overdo the chocolate. I think they turned out quite … More Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
BUTTERBEER CUPCAKES: VERSION 2 Roopa I still had some leftover butterscotch ganache and icing from yesterday, so I figured I’d try a slight variation on the cupcake. I used the exact same cupcake recipe from my first attempt at butterbeer cupcakes, but I replaced ¼ cup of milk with ¼ cup of cream soda. They … More Butterbeer Cupcakes
Roopa To understate it, I am a little bit of a Harry Potter fan. I have read the books countless times, and always get sad about two things: I don’t go to Hogwarts, and I don’t have butterbeer. Apparently they actually sell butterbeer these days, but Canada is kind of far from Harry Potter World. … More Butterbeer Cupcakes: Version 1
CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH MALTED CHOCOLATE ICING Roopa This cake is from a while ago, but I was looking through my old pictures and remembered how much I like the basketweave design. I used this cake recipe and this icing recipe. To date, the malted chocolate is one of my favourite kinds of icing!
