So, what did I learn from all of this? Well, of course, never make cupcakes again. If you feel the need for cupcakes attend the local bakery and BUY them there! :)
Always Follow the Directions!
So last night after cooking dinner, I decided that chocolate cupcakes sounded pretty tasty. So, I had the cupcake cups that you don't have to use a muffin pan for...they are a little stiffer. I thought this was a great idea because my muffin pan had only 12 slots, while I could probably squeeze like 20 cups onto a cookie sheet, then I would only have to make one batch...sounds brilliant right!! Not so, I proceeded to fill each of the 20 cups I had strategically placed on the pan, and at the end had a little batter left, so I just spread it amongst the cupcakes. Well, the directions said that you should make 24 cupcakes...but I thought it would be ok, they'd just be a bit big. Big was no the problem, the problem was they rose and then dripped all over the pan and the oven. It was a disaster(pics below to prove it). So, I wanted to just throw them away, but Trent said he thought I could fix them...results follow.

been there, done that. Don't feel bad. Next time you will just make two batches. And the frosted ones look yummy! It makes me want some chocolate cake.
Dude I want some cupcakes, bring some by!
The finished products looks really good. Good save!! I'm with you on the whole buying thing, I can't cook. I love your blog, it's nice to see that you have a life outside of dental hygiene :)
At least your oven didn't light on fire, did it? For Kire's birthday cake I filled the pan too full and it overflowed and my oven lit on fire, then my house smelled like smoke for his party : )
I must say, the cupcakes still looked very yummy! It makes me want to have some chocolate! I think that is so funny that Trenton thought this would be a great blogging picture. Trenton has joined in on the blogging fun!
