Hi,
Sorry I have not posted in a while.....it has been super busy with the holidays and such. Ok so today for dance class we are having like a little party and parents get to come and watch.......anyway I made cupcakes to bring. There is a lot of people and I didn't want to make two batches. The recipe turned out to be enough for around 18 cupcakes......we only had two muffin pans....so we kind of used this flower shaped cake pan and put the cupcake papers in there.....some of our cupcakes came out well......lopsided. They still taste great! For the recipe go to my hersheys chocolate cake recipe and use that to make them like cupcakes......accept thist time bake them for around 20-25 minutes. Here is a picture of my (lopsided) cupcakes...............
So thanks for reading!
Peace out!

The French Toast Disaster :)
Hi,
This morning I was craving French toast so I set out to make some. I made my brother 2 pieces and then I started on mine. I reached for the cinnamon to put some in. I poured the cinnamon in and a whole bunch came out. I was thinking, "that was funny, only a little bit is supposed to come out". Then I noticed that the cinnamon was kind of red so I looked at the bottle and it wasn't cinnamon!!! It was cayenne red pepper!! YIKES!!!!! I had to start ALL over again!!!!!!!! But my french toast was tasty! So, I bet you want french toast (without cayenne pepper) now, so, I will post the recipe I made this morning.
