Cherry-Almond Vanilla Cupcakes




Catherine,

You've had these before, but our internet friends need to be taught about these wonderfully majestic cupcakes. (Thanks to other Catherine for giving me this recipe.) Honestly, I follow this recipe exactly. I don't buy buttermilk; I take their advice: add 2 tsp vinegar to measuring cup and fill it up to 3/4 cup with milk. Now you probably want to know how I managed to make this recipe more difficult than it had to be (it happens every time). So, I don't have a mixer. No hand mixer and no stand mixer, so I tried to mix everything with a whisk. Don't try to mix this stuff by hand because it's a pain. If you want to make them for R, just do it at Dad's house and use the good mixer. 

I made these for my lab-mates because tomorrow is my last day of my six month stint there. It's been a wonderful experience, and they deserved a treat (in the very least). After all, food is the easiest way to convey any positive emotion.

See you soon and bon appétit!
