Trifecta...

The Holy Trinity...

 Armed with only a severe sweet craving, some cookie dough, brand new cupcake liners from my mama, and willing participants, I set to work. 

 As usual, I used my favorite chocolate cake recipe, filled my liners appropriately, and stuffed half with chocolate chip cookie dough as per a previous post, 6 with peanut butter cookie dough, and left 6 plain.

Once cooled, I frosted the chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes with the cookie dough frosting from the same post, topped the peanut butter cookie cupcakes with the same frosting, only adding peanut butter to the icing and drizzling with peanut butter.


I then topped the plain chocolate with my whipped cream cheese frosting and leftover sponge toffee shards. 

A mixed dozen went to a lady I'd made a deal with on kijiji; offering her a dozen cupcakes of her choice for a dozen mason jars, in which I plan on making cupcakes and brownies.  Six went to my lovely neighbors, who are more than happy to be my guinea pigs, and six stayed here.  Our 6 are gone, lovingly devoured by my husband and babies. 

Cupcakes don't last long around these parts, guess I'm doing something right.

Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting
1 pkg. Cream Cheese
1 C Butter
1 t. Clear Vanilla
4-5 C Icing sugar

~Whip butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. 
Add vanilla, beat again.
Add icing sugar, whipping until incorporated and at your preferred consistency.  (I like to pipe mine.)
