Prior to being part of this group, I didn’t like to bake because I didn’t think I was “good at it”. Now, I love it and I have really advanced my skill level.
The problem for me is when I bake, I want to eat the sweets. My husband and his coworkers are lucky because as quickly as I bake and taste, I send the majority to work with him. I wish I could send these frosted cupcakes to his workplace now!
The butterscotch sauce recipe is very easy to make and delicious! It will not go to waste in this house. The recipe was straightforward.
The cupcakes are nicely sweet but not overly sweet, luckily. The rest of the ingredients brought the sweetness. I baked the cupcakes for 24 minutes.
Once cooled, I cored the cupcakes and used a pastry bag to insert the butterscotch. The recipe said to toss the “cupcake plug” but I actually reinserted them once I put in the butterscotch.
Finally, the frosting was a standard buttercream with the addition of butterscotch. I piped the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes.
