Tonight I made homemade chocolate cupcakes with pink icing. They turned out divine!
I may have a new calling as cupcake diva. :)
If you have any sites for good cupcakes, send them my way!
Recipe (from recipezaar.com):
Ingredients 1/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1/2 cup boiling water 1/4 cup unsalted butter 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 large egg 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 2/3 cup all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt
Ingredients
In a small bowl add the boiling water to the cocoa slowly while stirring to prevent lumps until smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
In a bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Set aside.
Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat until smooth. Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the flour mixture and beat until incorporated. Add the cocoa mixture and stir until smooth.
Evenly fill the muffin cups with the batter and bake for about 17-20 minutes or until risen, springy to the touch, and a toothpick inserted into a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.

Yum! Care to share your divine cupcake recipe? :D They look great!
I updated the post with the recipe. They really did turn out nice. The only thing that bothered me was the backing cup not sticking to the cake. But that is a small price to pay for a cute lil cake.
