Calling Frekechild, Mara, Octavia, and Rachel9,
Continuing saga of chocolate cupcakes--her co-workers are insisting she make her snickers cupcakes, but she''s made them twice and the little piece of snickers falls to the bottom of the cupcake and becomes one with the paper, no problem if you just want to nibble it off but not so good for a contest. Any suggestions on how to keep it suspended in the middle?
A friend of mine says her Mom rolls fruit in flour before placing it in a cupcake and that helps it suspend? Do you think that would work? But would it leave ugly whiteness?
We also thought of two smaller pieces instead of one larger piece. Do you think that would help?
It would be ok it just stayed on top, but we tried laying it on top the second time (the first time we pushed it into the middle of the batter) we made them and it sunk to bottom 50% of the time. I think putting them in 1/2 way through the cooking wouldn''t work cos they would all lose their temperature. We''ll be making at least 2 -3 dozen.
Thanks all!!!! BTW we are sticking with original recipe, DD is sure I just botched it and she will do better (she''s probably right!)
