My cousin Emily was visiting from NYC over the weekend, and she was anxious to get into the kitchen to make some cupcakes (really, I swear). We came home from an afternoon at the museum with about an hour to spare, and whipped up some Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting in practically no time. Can I just say, I love having a sous chef? Emily is a good baker herself, so she knows her way around a measuring cup and a stand mixer, which helps tremendously. To be honest, I think I was the sous chef and she was the one in charge.
I had to go to an event that evening, so I left her to finish the frosting and decorating. She did an awesome job! I guess that sweetness just runs in the family.
