These white chocolate cupcakes are tender and fluffy with a decadent liquid white truffle center. The truffles shell melts into the cupcake with the white chocolate center remaing soft. The frosting is a creamy, not to sweet whipped white chocolate marscapone frosting.

Tiramisu Inspired Cupcakes Tiramisu Inspired Cupcakes
These two flavor cupcakes combine a moist rich chocolate cake with a moist light coffee cake. I tryed out a cupcake batter mold that makes a outer part of the cupcake in one flavor and the inner in the second flavor. The batter I used was thick so it was a time consuming process to pipe and push the batter thrpugh. I Swirled the batter for the last batch. The cupcakes using the mold were stunning with the surprise coffee middle. The swirled ones pretty. Both were delicious, with the seperate flavors working so well together. The frosting is a vanilla marscapone v cream which makes these cupcakes reminiscent of tirimisu! fenway -

Vanilla Buttermilk Cupcakes Vanilla Buttermilk Cupcakes
My basic go-to vanilla cupcake recipe that I wanted to post really quick. Not too sweet, a good balance of moist and fluffy, and has a good flavor even without frosting. Considering people who don't normally like cupcakes enjoy this recipe, I'll call it a success. Feel free to add more vanilla, sub vanilla beans, or add a tiny bit of almond extract to bring out the vanilla flavor. Cassandra Newcomb
