Cake time with little Cass

I love spending time with little Cass. She is always so loving and she's just plain amazing. We had a date night on the 22nd, we made vanilla cupcakes with strawberry mascarpone filling and chocolate icing. Oh they were yummy! And here's some proof of our good time.

First I made a p b and j for her...she told me exactly how to do it. She said it wasn't very hard. When I was finished she said "Jess you made my peanut butter and jelly greatly." Yep she sure did. She's such an encourager. I love it, it was one of the highlights of my night.

 Getting ready...aprons and all

 Of course she liked licking the mixers...I think that was her favorite part. She kept wanting to put everything in her mouth. It was pretty funny.

 Oh they are so yummy.

 Here's our finished cupcakes fresh out of the oven.

 Next we squeezed in the mascarpone filling. That was the tough part, especially when you can't see how much you're squeezing in. ;)

 Here's some filled cupcakes

 Then we iced them and put the strawberry on top. Can you believe it?

 Perfect, in their butterfly paper

 The yummy filling. Maas said she could drink the stuff...it was pretty good.

 She was sooo excited about all the cupcakes

 Look how many we made!

 It was so fun getting to share with Maas. Of course she choose one that little Cass iced. Good choice Maas.

We had a great time. I told her I had a lovely time with her and she said "I had a lovely time with you too Jess...a very lovely time." How can you not love her?

You can't.

On another note, you may have noticed on POTD 8-23-11 that I am starting a new adventure. I love baking so this was bound to happen sometime. It was stimulated by my baking time with Cassie Faith.

If you want to follow my project I'll post my thoughts and adventures on Making Taste Buds Happy

Thanks for tuning in.
