So anyway, using the Magnolia Bakery recipe, I made the vanilla cupcakes with vanilla frosting. Here's the batter:
And fresh out of the oven:
Finally, frosted:
I left the frosting white just to avoid food coloring. It looks a bit sad because I have no frosting "instrument"; instead I used the plastic bag with a snipped corner method. They may not be the most beautiful cupcakes (they're not the worst, I admit), but dh and the boys (and yes, me too) wolfed it all down in no time.

I don't know how it happened, but the Gremlins that live in the computer decided to select "Don't allow comments" for this post...WTF??? 'Scuse my French.
Thanks to The Blonde Duck and Navita, I found out about the problem. Now it's fixed...please post comments to your heart's content! Haha!
~Looks yummy!! I would have left them white also.:)
Hooray for cupcakes! And who cares what they look like? They'll fit into a piehole regardless. ;)
Teresa, I think they are absolutely beautiful. :)
And once again - drool all over my keyboard. I sure hope that just looking at those lovely, yummy cupcakes doesn't go straight to my hips. Don't laugh! It's been known to happen ;D
Yum, cupcakes. Since they are so much smaller than big regular size cakes, they really don't count in the calorie department.
I'm sure of it.
i love your cooling rack!
cosmo's been asking me to make cupcakes (they are featured in a favorite book). i made blueberry muffins instead, no icing, and i am sure that wasn't what he had in mind.
did you make a butter cream frosting? if i had a good recipe for that, i think i would make some.
Cake, I got the cooling rack at Goods For Cooks (back during old management days though).
I made the buttercream frosting that came with Magnolia Bakery cupcake recipe (link in the post itself...once you get to the cupcake recipe page, the icing recipe is at the bottom).
