Yummy Yummy Cupcakes

Nicole and brainstormed the other day about other cupcake flavors we need to make. Here's what we have come up with so far: (and fyi, our boston cream cupcakes were a hit!)

Strawberry Shortcake:
-This idea came to me by way of Jillian, the only other wife in our UPT class that's chillin' in Columbus. The cake would be vanilla, with frozen strawberries (texture-wise frozen strawberries are better to bake with, but I would buy fresh local ones and freeze them), then top it with a whipped cream frosting and fresh, non-frozen strawberries. It's strawberry shortcake cupcake style!

Chocolate Mint:
-chocolate cake with mint chocolate chips, topped with a slightly mint flavored, mint colored buttercream frosting and an Andes mint (or a few mint chocolate chips).

Kahlua:
-A Kahlua cupcake with a chocolate espresso frosting.

Buttery nipple:
-Apparently this is a butterscotch alcoholic beverage? Never had one, but I'm all for a butterscotch cupcake. With a different name, though, so I don't feel weird saying it :)

Guiness:
-We have seen a lot of recipe for Guiness cupcakes. So that means we have to test it, right? Right. Not sure how beer would taste in a cupcake, but at least all the alcohol gets burned off.

Blackberry Crumble:
-Vanilla cupcake with frozen blackberries, whipped cream frosting (color: blackberry!), and crumble on top. And a fresh blackberry! This could also be blueberry or peach flavored.

Orange Cremesicle:
-Yummy. Orange soda cupcake with vanilla orange frosting!

Pineapple/Pina Colada cupcake:
-Because who doesn't love the pineapple coconut pairing? Yum yum!

Salted Caramel:
-Chocolate cake with a caramel center, buttercream frosting with a drizzle of caramel sauce and sprinkled with sea salt.

White Russian Cupcake:
-Bacically a Kahlua cupcake. Can't remember. But I remember they are yummy!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
-Because everything is better with raw cookie dough in it!

Apple pie cupcakes:
-Applesauce cupcake with cinnamon cream cheese frosting and crumble and caramelized apples on top.


If you have any more ideas, feel free to comment!
