Trilogy of Sin

What kind of Cupcake is your addiction?

Do you love special ones likes a vanilla-cinnamon cupcake with caramelized apple pieces or just a rich chocolate Cupcake with a delicious chocolate Ganache??

When I tried my first Cupcake it was Chocolate but now I can't decide between chocolate, caramel or vanilla. I love all three them - that's why I call it "trilogy of sin"

I love the simple things in my life.

I rated my last Post on Facebook and I thought there are a lot who love chocolate - but i was wrong.

Most of the people loved the vanilla cupcake - I was really really surprised, even caramel was mentioned like ones or twice? poor poor caramel cupcake :( .

It's just interesting to know which flavor do you like.

I started thinking of keeping one main base recipe and refine it with a flavour.

Why I do that?

I tried a lot of different recipes ...

I got a ton of baking books in my sideboard and I always tried the chocolate and vanilla ones. I got really disappointed. I use the right ingredients even the amount was right - but at the end the cupcake were a mess.. to dry or not enough flour, to much sugar.... etc. Last time I had a cupcake which tasted like a cookie. I wasn't fluffy as i wished. So here's my best cupcake recipe ever. Do you have an alternative? Let me please know :)

Ingredients: Vanilla Cupcakes

• 100gr butter
  

• 150gr sugar
