Banana Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting

Hi friends!

Guess what? I'm back and I have a re-vamped blog layout! You like, yes?

Guess what else? I also made these delISH banana cupcakes today. Oh so scrumptious.

   

I used the banana cupcake recipe from the Taste of Home website, but I wasn't digging the idea of lemon frosting on them. So I went with a classic chocolate frosting recipe from one of my cookbooks. I topped them off with some chocolate toffee bits.

I was feeling too lazy to frost them with a piping bag thanks to twisting my back yesterday and not being able to stand a whole lot today without considerable pain. So I innovated... I used one of those tiny ice cream scoops that are often used for cookie dough, then made a flattened area with the back of a spoon dipped in VERY hot water. Worked for me!

I'm off to rest my back before I turn into a crooked old lady. Have a fabulous Sunday evening!
