I embarked on a afternoon of chocolate-y goodness. I baked a batch of Roger's fave ... cookies and cream cupcakes. Switched out the usual calling for canola oil with apple sauce. (I scored a huge jar of Mott's apple sauce in the clearance section at Albertson's). Cupcakes came out a lot more moist...I will probably make that a permanent switcheroo.
All deco-ed out with a schmear of vanilla icing and then covered with oreo crumbs.
Below are my trial run of chocolate mint cupcakes. I made the mint icing from scratch ... looks white in the picture ... it's actually a very light, minty green :) These came out a lot better than expected and will definitely add to my fave cupcake recipes.
