My oven is, yet again, broken. I think the repair guys either installed the part wrong or the new part was faulty. Either way I’m out of an oven until Monday. So that, coupled with how blazing hot it’s getting around here, means I’m working on the perfect ice cream base recipe! Trial 1 had many flaws, including accidentally over-churning 🙄. Over-churning ice cream is one of the worst mistakes you can make - it basically starts turning your ice cream into butter. Next time will be much better!
Chocolate cupcake success!!! Finally, after 5 trials and 7 recipe iterations I have my perfect chocolate cupcake. Light, fluffy, and rich, perfect for eating with your hands instead of a fork, and shown here with raspberry buttercream. I’ve also included my chocolate Swiss meringue buttercream recipe for @calicoreid (since I forgot to include it with my chocolate buttercream post). Enjoy and let me know how it turns out, okay?!
