I love experimenting with recipes – it may be one of my absolute favorite pastimes. So this weekend, I really wanted to try a new icing – a sour cream-based buttercream. I just needed the perfect cake to test it out on. It was kinda like getting a brand new pair of shoes and planning your outfit around them, rather than getting dressed first and choosing the shoes to match. I had my heart set on this new icing. So I picked up this tub of sour cream, and thought, “well I’m sure not gonna use this whole thing; I hope I can figure out another use before it goes bad.” And like a bolt of lighting to the brain, it hit me – red velvet cake calls for sour cream in the recipe. Eureka! I’ve found my test cake!
I quickly went to work, and whipped up a batch of red velvet mini cupcakes, then proceeded to use almost all of the remaining sour cream for the icing. The result? One of the most-loved desserts I’ve created, to-date.
Wow I really want to pop one of those badboys in my mouth right now! Thanks for sharing.
you’re welcome!! Thanks for reading!
Hi, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one
and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam feedback?
If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can suggest?
I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any help is very much appreciated.
Hi there! i do get a lot of spam – thankfully most of it is captured by the spam filter, but it still can be annoying! i think there is just no way around it, sadly. 😦
