Ladies, you don't know how much I love cupcakes, or how much time I spend collecting the very best cupcake recipes I can find. The BH and I dream of opening up a bakery someday when we're fabulously rich, and while we don't want to focus exclusively on cupcakes, these tasty little treats will figure big into the menu. Cupcakes are getting so popular that there are now tons of wicked amazing recipes, and the best part is, no matter how complicated they are, they're still relatively easy to make! I found a fantastic resource for the best cupcake recipes ever, and want to share some of my favorites with you!
1. Chocolate Graham Cracker Cupcakes with Toasted Marshmallow
Can you say s'more? Oh, this cupcake sounds like heaven! Not only is this one of the best cupcake recipes I've ever laid eyes on, but chances are, you have all the ingredients in your house right now! It doesn't take a lot, and there's even a recipe to make your own marshmallow frosting! Oh man, I just got really hungry...
2. Maple Walnut Cupcakes
I love maple flavor, and it seems to me that, even with the frosting factor, this cupcake would make a delicious kind of breakfast treat. Maple goes divinely with walnuts, as well, so you really can't go wrong. Again, there's an additional recipe so you can make your own maple buttercream, and it melts in your mouth!
3. Banana Cupcakes with Honey-Cinnamon Frosting
I love banana and banana flavoring, so this was a must-try for me. What really makes it one of the best cupcake recipes, however, is the frosting. I was a little wary about the whole honey-cinnamon thing, especially with the banana, but it turns out my worries were totally misplaced. These cupcakes are divine – and in total, they take less than an hour to make! If you've got bananas that are about ready to be over-ripe, this is the perfect way to get rid of them.
