And more cupcakes...

A co-worker fell in love with these from the "Hello Cupcake" book, so I did a batch to take to work. I'm not a fan of all that buttercream icing, but she is, so here they are.

Other baked goodies...

Sometimes I do bake other things and thought I would share these yummy chocolate ganache cupcakes with you. The recipe is simple and uses Hershey's syrup (I used the new dark chocolate one) to make them extra chocolatey. Tom loves jimmies and although I usually object, I let him put them on these... since they were for his Dad on Father's Day.

Can she bake a cherry pie?

Yes! I love this time of year when every farmer's market and fruit stand is bursting with sweet cheeries. Yes, I know sour cherry pie is the norm, but these cherries are too fabulous not to try. I used very little sugar and very little else to create a delicious cherry pie. This did remind me that it has been a long time since I made a lattice crust. It's harder than I remember.
