Italian Meringue Mararons with White Choc Mousse and Vanilla Cupcakes
The Sugared Escape kitchen had a win today with a successful batch of "footed"-ed macarons! That certainly deserves a big and embarrasing happy dance around the kitchen.
These cupcakes mix it up a little with a mousse icing instead of a super sweet buttercream.
Using cream and a little sugar instead of mountains of icing sugar means I can pile these ones as high as a mountain without those "too much icing" complaints.
And a little hidden chocolate in the middle adds a secret surprise.
I certainly didn't eat all the left over cake middles :)
Red Velvet and Cream Cheese Sweetcakes
When that baking need hits (and fast expiring buttermilk!), a quick batch of upside down red velvet cupcakes solves everything.
