Since it's my birthday tomorrow (it actually is already my birthday back home in Sydney so I'm 22 in Australia but still 21 in the UK - something which I find pretty crazy!) I really wanted to bake up some scrumptious little cupcakes to kick off the celebrations. What better way than to start your birthday eve baking all morning with it pouring down rain outside, watching Gilmore Girls in the background and eating way too much cupcake batter so that you are full even before they come out of the oven.
I used this recipe for the vanilla cupcakes and this one for the cookies and cream frosting. The perfect combination. We had some friends come over this afternoon which was lucky, otherwise I probably would have eaten nearly every single one.
