'There ain't no calories in it if it's home made' | The Triple Threat Cupcake


Hey lovely readers :) I thought I'd share one of my biggest passions with you today; BAKING! I started my own (rather successful) cupcake business last year but I had to stop it a few months ago when I started working full-time. 

I still enjoy baking as a hobby and I love experimenting with different flavours. I discovered peanut butter last month - I know, I know, I have been living under a rock my whole life - so I decided to incorporate it into a cupcake recipe. I came up with my 'Triple Threat' cupcake - a moist chocolate sponge, a gooey nutella centre, a melt-in-your-mouth dairy milk buttercream and a peanut butter topping.

Yes, it is as heavenly and calorific as it sounds - but like I always say, 'If it's home made then it contains no calories.' These beauties took me 40 minutes to bake and decorate. They are ever so easy and inexpensive to make, and perfect for this bank holiday weekend!

"Fancie a cupcake?"

It is very rare these days that I get a day off to do what I want to do; so you can imagine my absolute delight when I had a day off last week and nothing planned! The possibilities were endless. The world was my oyster. I had a tank full of petrol and a wallet full of *ahem* pennies, I could do anything I wanted to do!
