I'd hate to see you disappointed by a recipe yet again! <BR/>Again, I'm not too sure what happened with the texture of your cupcakes but I think trying it again would be super. <I>Definitely</I> include the mango and I think the chili powder would be an interesting addition. As for the frosting, you might be right to just go with a regular cream cheese frosting that you know and love rather than fuss around with something else that may be disappointing or sub-par.<BR/><BR/>And, really, thank you so much for reading. I'm so glad you enjoy my baking and find it to be approachable and doable. Keep up your baking! I definitely want to know how it all turns out!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00844967151300709580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9085656147857013139.post-11302739680012725362008-07-03T11:02:00.000-04:002008-07-03T11:02:00.000-04:00I'm going to try these, today.

I am going to try it with mango, and maybe even the chili powder. The cupcake itself tasted pretty good, but the texture was weird. Hmmmm... I think it calls for a re-do! <BR/>As for the frosting, you also mentioned it wasn't your favorite, a little too sweet. Any other suggestions? I thought about the juice to another recipe, but I'd hate to have my 2nd batch not turn out! Ha ha. Maybe I'll just try it with regular cream cheese, 'cause I am sure that changed the flavor! <BR/><BR/>Anyway, keep posting more cupcakes! I love 'em! And I love that you aren't some professional baker (it's less intimidating!) :)<BR/><BR/>I'll let you know how my 2nd batch turns out!Meaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01367822951165861848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9085656147857013139.post-10174556506773946572008-07-03T00:51:00.000-04:002008-07-03T00:51:00.000-04:00Thank you, Meagan!

I guess I should specify next time, haha.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00844967151300709580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9085656147857013139.post-6777560409100770122008-07-02T22:58:00.000-04:002008-07-02T22:58:00.000-04:00I just came across your blog, and I love it. I ha...I just came across your blog, and I love it. I have a question about the frosting on the red velvet cupcakes...<BR/>Do you use powdered sugar or regular sugar? It doesn't specify, so I originally assumed powdered sugar. But then, I wondered if that was some secret??<BR/><BR/>Thanks!Meaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01367822951165861848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9085656147857013139.post-56955337205015411832008-07-02T14:29:00.000-04:002008-07-02T14:29:00.000-04:00I doubt it would matter, but I'm not positive.
