angel lush cupcakes

Does anyone else get this Kraft 'What's Cooking' magazine? It's free and it's mailed out every quarter. The recipes in it are always so simple and well, the pictures just make me want to try every recipe in there. So since we have 'potluck and ministry' at our Church this evening, I decided to make these yummy looking cupcakes. They are made using angel cake, I've never thought to do that before, it sure was a great idea and I arrived home with an empty plate tonight, all 16 were gone in a flash. I think the kiddies enjoyed them!

The recipe is here. Although I should mention, I just put fresh whipped cream on top of them.

I baked them while Lilah was napping and I was in the middle of decorating them when she woke up. Colin went up to get her out of the crib and when she was half way down the stairs she saw what I was doing! She peeked thorough the stair rails, got these huge eyes and said: "Those for me. Those for Yiya Dacie (Lilah Gracie)!"

She decorated one for herself and yum'd and mmm'd the whole time while eating it!

Also, while we were driving to Church she was chattering away as usual. After a while she announced, "We're going to eat cupcakes at the party". We laughed and I reminded her that we were actually going to Church!

  5. Ooh yours look far better than the Kraft ad!

    Lilah is just such a sweet pea! I love the pics with her baby in her belly. A few kids I teach asked about Ella being in my belly and it nearly broke my heart. I can't imagine what it will be like when she starts asking about it :(
