Cupcake-o-rama!
I went to a dinner party last night and I baked Lemon Meringue Cupcakes and Old Fashioned Chocolate with Mint Chocolate Chip Buttercream.
Lemon Meringue Cupcakes! I made lemon cupcakes, piped some meringue on and then toasted them for a little bit more.
Old Fashioned Chocolate Cupcakes with Mint Chocolate Chip Buttercream. These were so fantastic. The frosting was perfect.
The Cupcake Courier! I got this for christmas and it was the most awesome thing EVER. It made transporting them to the party so EASY.
The courier all covered up. It has a nice handle and four snaps to make sure it stays closed. It hold 3 dozen cupckaes.

I have tried a lot of different chocolate recipes, and this is by far the best. The cupcakes are perfectly moist and have a really rich flavor.
The frosting is a combination of two recipes - the base is from here.
(I use a full 1/4 tsp of peppermint, sometimes a little more, I taste as I add a drop at a time. (it calls for a 1/8)) (The cupcakes with the recipe did NOT turn out well.)
I got the idea to add in the chocolate chips from here.
