Is a boozy cupcake okay?
From Acupcakeaweek:

Making Kahlua is simple. Just boil together 1 quart water, 2 1/2 cups sugar, 3 tablespoons instant espresso. Be very, very careful and watch the coffee mixture making sure not to boil over, after about 4 minutes - it WILL if you are not careful. Let cool completely, then add good vodka (I like Grey Goose) and some nice vanilla. I used 2 tbs of homemade bourbon vanilla extract. Bottle and store in a cool, dark place.

Mocha Cappuccino Cupcakes

Ingredients:

2 cups strong coffee (I used 2 packets of Starbucks Via and 3 teaspoons of instant espresso)

1/2 cocoa powder

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

2 teaspoons baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 sticks butter

2 cups sugar

3 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Bake time 20-23 minutes at 350 degrees.

1) In a 2 cup measuring cup, stir the cocoa powder into the brewed coffee. Cool to room temperature - put in the refrigerator for about a half hour. Use this time to prepare your frosting.

2) Sift the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt) together in a medium bowl.

3) In a large bowl, using an electric mixer cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

4) Add in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Stir in the vanilla.

5) On a low setting, add in 1/3 of the dry ingredients, then half of the coffee. Repeat with the remaining flour and coffee, ending with the flour.

Yields 26-30 cupcakes.

Kahlua Cream Cheese Frosting

Ingredients:


1 stick butter, room temperature

6 ounces cream cheese, softened

4 tablespoons homemade Kahlua

1 tablespoon cocoa powder

2 1/2 cups - 3 cups powdered sugar, sifted

Using an electric mixer, cream together the cream cheese and butter - about 8-10 minutes. Occupy yourself with something else, walk away, ignore it, give that butter the cold shoulder until it becomes a nice fluffy, beautiful cloud of goodness. Add the kahlua and cocoa powder. Mix in the powdered sugar a cup at a time until you reach your desired sweetness/consistency. Put in the refrigerator for 1 hour but no more than 3 hours before frosting your cupcakes. Frosts about 30 cupcakes.




Non-boozy.
Snickerdoodle Cupcake Recipe:

(Yields 24-26 cupcakes)

Ingredients:

3 cups all purpose flour

1 tbs baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 tbs cinnamon

1 cup room temperature butter

4 eggs, room temperature

1 tbs vanilla extract

1 tbs almond extract

1 1/4 cup milk (divided)

Bake time 18-22 minutes. Preheat oven to 350* F.

1) In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Next add in the eggs, 1 at a time, making sure they are well incorporated before adding another.

2) Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.

3) In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

4) On a low setting, add the flour mixture on a low speed in 3 batches, alternating the two additions of milk and ending with the flour, until well combined.

Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting


Ingredients:

8 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature

1/2 stick butter

4 cups confectioner’s sugar

1 tbs cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp almond extract

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream the butter and cream cheese together until smooth and creamy, as always, 8-10 minutes. Stir in the cinnamon, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Add in the confectioner’s sugar, 1 cup at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. Chill in the refrigerator for 1-3 hours - but no longer, before frosting your cupcakes.

Remember, as much as you may be tempted to, DO NOT frost your cupcakes until they have completely cooled.

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Streusel


Ingredients:

1/2 cup Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup flour

2 tbs butter or margarine

1 tbs cinnamon

Coarsely crush cereal until desired texture. I like slightly lumpy streusel, so I leave a few bigger pieces and lots of tiny pieces. Stir in the rest of the ingredients. Mix with a fork until nice and crumbly.

Grilled Peaches with Ginger
 
Ingredients
•4 peaches, ripe yet not too soft, pitted and cut into quarters
•1/4 cup brown sugar
•2 teaspoons vanilla
•1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

Directions
•In a large bowl, mix together brown sugar, ground ginger and vanilla.
•Add peach quarters, mixing to ensure all pieces are covered with the sugar mixture.
•Let sit 15-30 minutes. During this time the mixture will become wetter and more liquidy.
•Toss every 10 minutes or so to ensure peaches stay coated.
•On a hot grill with clean grates, place peaches, flesh side down. Cook for 3-5 minutes, depending on the heat, which should be turned down if the peaches begin to burn.
•Flip peaches to other flesh side and grill for another 3-5 minutes.
•Peaches should now be soft and ready to serve.

Some serving ideas:
•drizzled with a little honey
•paired with vanilla ice cream (my favorite)
•topped with toasted almonds

Cajun Sweet Potatoes

1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2-3 large sweet potatoes
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a small bowl, stir together paprika, brown sugar, black pepper, onion powder, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
Slice the sweet potatoes into cubes (about 1 inch). Toss in olive oil and spices (I usually put them in a glass backing dish, drizzle the olive oil on, sprinkle spices then stir it around with a spatula and repeat until all the spices are gone).

Bake in preheated oven until tender, or about 1 hour. I use a spatula to flip em over every 15 minutes so they don't stick but you have to be careful not to mush them.

Hmmm I can't think of a good name. I'm not that creative. My real first name is Helen, that sound like an old lady so you can use that lol.

Marinated fresh mozzarella, cucumber and pepper salad 

Ingredients
•2 red pepper, cut into bite sized pieces
•2 yellow pepper, cut into bite sized pieces
•2 orange pepper, cut into bite sized pieces
•2 cucumber, quartered and cut into bite sized pieces
•1 large container of marinated fresh mozzarella balls (we use a 22 oz container of Mozzarella Fresca brand from Costco)
•1/4 C olive oil (this amount may increase or decrease depending on how much oil is in your container of mozzarella balls)
•1/4 C Balsamic Vinegar
•2 T Italian Herb Blend
•1 T garlic powder

Directions
•Place peppers and cucumbers in a large ceramic bowl.
•Drain oil from marinated mozzarella into the bowl
•Cut mozzarella balls in half (this gives a better mozz to veggie ratio)
•Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar and herbs in a small bowl, mixing thoroughly.
•Pour over fresh mozzarella, peppers and cucumbers.
•Stir to coat everything completely
•For best flavor, place in fridge and allow flavors to meld for an hour or more.

You could add other veggies too, if you like. I think cherry tomatoes would be a great addition. I just don't like them so don't include them.

Church ladies LOVE Sparky's Cream of Crap Chicken!

1 large bag of Pepperidge Farm Stuffing  (You can use other brands of stuffing, but this size bag is generally the amount of stuffing you want)
1 family size can of Cream of Chicken Soup  (Or Mushroom, or celery, etc.  I just prefer the chicken).
1 package of Swiss Cheese slices
Milk
1 package boneless/skinless chicken breasts
salt, pepper, spices of your choice

1. Make the Stuffing according to the package.  There should be enough stuffing to coat the bottom of a rectangular baking dish.  Place 2/3 of the stuffing in the dish, leave 1/3 to the side.
2. Place the chicken breasts on top of the stuffing
3. Mix the Cream of Chicken Soup with about half the can's worth of milk.  blend.  Add salt, pepper, and paprika.  I also add a little chili powder and cumin for a bit of a kick.
4. Put the Swiss cheese on top of the chicken.  The cheese should evenly coat the chicken.
5. Pour the soup mixture over the chicken/stuffing/cheese. Work the soup into the dish where necessary.
6. Sprinkle the rest of the stuffing on the top of the dish.
7. Bake at 350 until bubbly, approx 40 minutes.

This dish freezes beautifully, and is super easy to make, so it is great for bringing by for people who have had new babies, a loss in the family, are home recuperating, etc.

Serves approx. 6

And nobody hate on my Cream of Crap here, y'all know you have a can of it at home you don't want to admit to :-)
