Ello, folks! I do hope that you are having a wonderful week? Today I wanted to share with you these beautiful and easy love cupcakes. One thing that I adore about this recipe is that it is super easy and they look like they just have come from the bakery. Spoil your family a bit this Valentine’s Day.
You can always fool people when it comes to your baking skills and with these love cupcakes, you will have them thinking your the next “Cake Boss”. You will just need a few things and you can always just use boxed cake mix if you are in a rush. What really makes these special is the topping.
What You Need For The Love Cupcakes
1 C Ghirardelli chocolate melting wafers
1 piping bag with #2 piping tip
1 Cookie sheet with wax paper
1 print out of the word “Love” in cursive
The first thing that you will want to do is to find a font that you love and print out the word “Love” on your printer. This helps to keep everything uniform and makes for less mistakes in the long run. This will be put under your wax paper so that you can write perfectly.
Super cool right?
Directions To Write Love:
Melt the chocolate in a microwave for 30 second or until smooth
Scoop into the piping bag
Place the print out sheet onto the cookie sheet
Place the wax paper above the print out sheet
Using the piping bag, pipe out the word about 24-26 times
Allow to harden for a few hours
The extras are incase some break
Like I said before you can totally use packaged cake mixed and frosting but below I have included directions on how to make your own. These are totally yummy.
