As you may (or may not) recall from this previous post, I set out, when I thought I was going to be "taking some time off", to create Martha Stewart's Boston Creme Pie cupcakes. Since I am fortunately employed, I decided to make them for my friends's housewarming party this past weekend. I was all excited to create these delicious looking cupcakes...
The first step highlights my ingredients:
Here shows the creme of the Boston Creme Pie cupcake...something does not look right.
I soon realize, when beginning to make the chocolate glaze, that I have mistakenly used the heavy cream in the creme...I should have used whole milk.
I get sad and mad but decide to go on with a cupcake, at least I still had my mix.
Genius idea! Use the chocolate chips and put on the bottom of the cupcake for a sweet surprise.
Out comes batch #1.
Here's batch #1 on the cooling rack, as batch #2 cooks.
Final product- Jaime's cupcakes and a mini cake for the housewarmees.

So while my culinary aspirations were not as I thought they would be, I realized with this mistake, I created a delicious dessert all on my own!
Chocolate chips at the bottom...that IS genius! You've just inspired me to bake today, thanks :)
