I was in Mexico for Christmas and the whole week before Christmas, I didn't get to be especially "Christmassy" and I HAD to make some Christmas themed cupcakes! Gingerbread with peppermint buttercream frosting.
Cakes
5 Table spoons of butter
1/2 a cup of white sugar
1/2 cup of honey (I don't like molasses)
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 table spoon of cocoa powder
1 1/4 teaspoons ginger
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of all spice
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup of hot milk
Cream the butter with the sugar, add the egg and egg yolk. put all the dry ingredients in a separate bowl excluding the baking powder which will be dissolved in the hot milk. add dry ingredients to the butter mixture, after stirred, pour the milk a baking powder in. Place in cup cake liners and make at 350 for about 20 minutes.
