How I Celebrated

Trying to avoid having a ton of sweets in the house, we attempted a small "cupcakes for two" recipe. It came out to be really dense more like a bread instead of a cake (like banana bread). It was still good and not too sweet. We used this flavored soy milk since we had not been shopping for regular milk yet. That may have been part of the problem, but the person who posted the recipe said they used almond milk and it was just fine. It was alright, just not how I would picture a cupcake.

History

 I used to think cupcakes were a waste of time because you had to put out the papers and then put an individual scoop of batter in each cup. Now I think it is smart for portions and faster cooking.
