Cookieventure # 2: Chocolate Cupcakes with Buttercream Frosting
As previously mentioned, this weekend is all about requests. Thus, we're keeping the Cookie Book in the shelf for now and make use of another cookbook gift from my brother (which inspired this diary, actually). I know! He loves me too much that he buys these cool books for me. Or he maybe he just loves to eat, and wants me to make them for him. Haha. Whichever it is, I'm just grateful for it.

Past Adventures
Even back in my child hood years, I seem to have developed a liking to making sweets, and had my fair share - there are the pastillas, polvoron, and yema - all of which are Filipino milk-based candies or sweets. But just like other people, I stopped making them and focused on what I needed to - school and studying.
For some reason, after finishing college, I came across a recipe for a chocolate chip cookie at the back of a store-bought flour and immediately had the inkling to make them. And voila. I made the first batch of cookies without burning our house to the ground.
Feeling all proud of my accomplishment, I gave it another try. This time, adjusting the ingredients to suit my own taste buds. I was really anxious making adjustments to the recipe simply because (1) I was only able to make one good batch yet, and (2) I never had any formal training whatsoever to baking for me to be confident at all.
But!
Oh yes my dear! I was able to make them my own, and even had another batch that was suited for my lola who was diabetic. One thing I regret - I never wrote them down! Booo! Hahaha.
So this little blog, will help me remember, AND TAKE NOTES, of any "revisions" I will have with what ever recipe I will find and try on my own. :)
For now, feast your eyes on the few sweets I have made in the past...
