I was just surfing the web and came across this site. I am so pleased that you liked my cupcake recipe, and honored that it was compared to one from Dorrie Greenspan. Thanks!

By the way, one of the easiest ways to get batter into cupcake tins is to use a small ice cream scoop. It lets you put the exact same amount of batter into each cup, and is very easy to control so that you don’t spill stuff all over!

Cheers.

Sounds like a great vacation…much better than roasting in the sun!

Veron,
If I lived there, I'd be more than happy to "help" you choose the best recipe…

Your cupcakes look lovely, so beautiful! I like the glow this icing has.

As for the sweet that takes me waaay back to the past, it's carrot cake – but the carrot cake we make here in Brazil is a bit different. There's no nuts, raisins and the carrots are blended in a blender, with the other ingredients. Then, after the cake is baked, a silky chocolate icing is spread on top of it.
My mom used to bake this cake all the time for us, it was delicious!

As for the filling the cupcake cups method, I'd definitely try the measuring cup system.

I was thinking that the crumb would have been more tender with the buttermilk. Surprise.
They both sound wonderful. Great growing up story...such good memories.

oooh, chocolatey chocolateness…those look very good. My memories of cupcakes were always fun candy covered things – hardly ever chocolate, but I like these. Now to get into my own kitchen and bake…

You know, I'm not really sure what childhood sweet treat was my favourite. That kind of surprises me. But I'm happy to adopt your chocolate cupcakes as a suitable alternative!
