Our blogger friends Blondie and Brownie have cooked up more cupcake fun, this time in honor of the Mets. (via Flickr)
Blondie made Mets cupcakes (go to their blog for the recipe) and writes:
Then I had a frosting debacle. Blueberry and lemon wasn't my first choice, but I couldn't avoid that it's a tried and true flavor combination. I came across David Lebovitz's Almond Layer Cake with Lemon Frosting. David Lebovitz is a pastry deity, therefore I take any recipe he gives out as the word. I disregarded the cake and took the frosting. Now, I know some of the following problem may have come about due to my own impatience, and the cupcakes might not have been fully cooled. Regardless, I am not in love with this frosting. Personally, I don't like cloyingly sweet frosting, so I did David's recipe using only 3 cups of sugar instead of 3 1/2.
See Blondie and Brownie for the gooey results.
