Baked Treats

June 13, 2011 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 11 Comments

Winter weather is perfect for baking. Sarah made us a few treats on the weekend. First up were these delicious Cinnamon Scroll Cupcakes – which were beautiful warm from the oven. They were filled with a generous swirl of cinnamon sugar and sultanas. Sarah used a recipe she found over at La Fuji Mama.
Sarah also made some Mini Chocolate Meringue Cupcakes which were the perfect chocolate concoction – halfway between a brownie and a meringue – bliss!She used a recipe from Food Network.
Our freezer is now packed with treats for the week ahead.

    I have been reading your blog for a while now & love what you do, both baking & crafting wise. I really like the cinnamon roll cupcakes & will try them out. Thanks for linking to the site the recipe came from. It looks interesting & I will give it a good look over. Also, thanks for the link to the Queen Annes Lace Scarf tutorial as I too had seen them done on Two Little Banshee’s but didn’t realise they were crocheted. Now I just need to find time to start my own.
