it's beginning to look a lot like...


Christmas north pole cupcakes!

Here's an idea for a holiday cupcake treat: Chocolate peppermint cupcakes with a candy-cane swirl! If you can, look for those pretty edible silver and gold balls, they're great for holiday decorating, and no, they won't break your teeth. Other holiday ingredients you can add to your cupcakes are ginger, apple-spice, pumpkin, egg nog...I'm going to experiment with an egg nog cupcake this week by just substituting egg nog for the liquid required for a cake mix and a pinch more cinnamon and nutmeg. A nice ganache of whipped cream, icing sugar and a splash of baileys/rum/rum flavouring would be a great way to celebrate the holidays.

yum.
