The Peanut Gallerie

This time, not so much.

I sat for weeks trying to figure out what kind of cupcakes to make. I've been dying to try my hand at some Matcha Green Tea icing, but didn't think they were "fall" enough for the time of year. So, I picked Pumpkin. I should have thought this through. I don't like pumpkin pie to begin with, so no bueno to start. 

I decided to pair it with a chocolate cream cheese frosting... sounds good, I know. That's what I thought too. I think the problem was that it was a bit too over powering for the pumpkin. I didn't know this about pumpkin, but it's kinda blah. I topped it off with some cinnamon, but that still didn't seem to help. (They make for cute pictures though :0)

Oh well.

My next attempt is to make some cupcakes I really like (but still experimental, of course)... Maybe some Dark Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Cayenne Pepper Frosting.

Can you tell I hate chocolate?
