5 Fave Cupcakes & Muffins

The winter holidays are around the corner and its time for treats and goodies. This week, for 5 Things Tuesday I ask you to name your favourite muffins and cupcakes.

I borrowed the idea for this post from Paula Light who said last week that she was thinking about doing a cupcake review.

I love all kinds of cakes, cupcakes, muffins etc. Here are just five of my favourites:

Raisin & Oatmeal “Healthy” Muffins

Oatmeal muffins, preferably sugar free, are the baked goods I have most often as they are relatively guilt free.

Homemade Chocolate Cupcakes

When my children were younger, I enjoyed baking these with them. We decorated them with Hershey’s chocolate syrup. They were topped with hundreds and thousands (more commonly known as “sprinkles” but I love the old fashioned term).

Salted Caramel Cupcakes

True to the name of my blog, salted caramel cupcakes, brownies, cookies and ice cream are a great favourite with me. I love the combination of sweet and salty.

Blueberry Muffins

Muffins baked with blueberries or any other dried fruit or berries are oh so yummy and less unhealthy.

Frosted Cupcakes

Frosted cupcakes are great for every occasion. They look so festive and tempting, they are always a success. Equally at home at a children’s party or grown up soiree, they are hard to resist.

Boxed up, these gaily decorated treats make a great present.

What are your favourites? I would love to know.
