Friday Food Fun: Pink Lemonade Cupcakes

Thinking this Friday Food Fun might be a regular gig since Roger Leroy specifically requested I not do it.

That’s the kind of mom I am.

Here’s a little more baking fun that Scary Baby and I indulged in. I showed her this recipe and she thought they sounded delicious. I wasn’t sure but was willing to try. We made these at the end of August because I figured we could safely turn on the oven for 20 minutes and not pass out.

Side note: Hey Ann, do you recognize the cupcake liners? Thanks for leaving them in the backseat of the car otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to have this bonding day. I would have mailed them to you but I didn’t even know they were there until Scary Baby brought them in and said they would be perfect for our pink lemonade cupcakes.

Once mixed up and baked, Scary Baby wants to jump in for the fun stuff.

I had watched my friend Leigh Anne’s great cupcake tutorial showing a great method of frosting the cupcakes by filling ziploc bags with the frosting.

I think I missed a step.

Because ours looked suspiciously like little pink dog piles. Don’t even try to deny you weren’t thinking exactly that.

She and her friend Cloret were excited to get to frost the cupcakes.

Even with our lack of frosting skill, the girls loved them.

Scary Baby was excited to take one in to her Home Ec teacher.

Word is that she said it was the best cupcake she’d ever had.

I think that may have been a gross exaggeration or she hasn’t had many cupcakes.

They were good. Maybe a top ten cupcake but not necessarily the blue ribbon winner at the fair. With a little kick from the tart lemonade in the cake and the frosting, they were tasty.

You can decide. Make them and cast your vote!
