Home from the BBQ. I've eaten far too much crap today. Before Dave comments more about wanting to wear my cupcakes, allow me to tempt you with a few more photos.
I put together some white chocolate chip-macadamia nut cookies from dough I'd pulled from the freezer last night. That was a doodle - slice, mound, bake. The cupcakes were a little more involved. I'd made the recipe twice before - including once for a MoveOn.org bake sale that a few teammates were running on the corner of Broadway and Melrose.
Bake the cupcakes. Cool. Pipe into them a peanut butter filling.
Dip in ganache. Dip again.
Decorate with a rosette of peanut butter filling.It took some time, but the reception to them at the BBQ was terrific.
Oh, and I must thank the not-so-N-anymoreBF for sending me the amazing gift of preserves and fresh veggies; the box they came in was ideal for transporting the cupcakes!

That's one thing I've never been fond of - peanut butter & chocolate. Give me peanut butter any day and give me chocolate any day but together - I'll pass. They look unbelievable, though. Very scrumptious! Maybe, just maybe, these would be the treats to get me over my choc-and-pb dislike...
I honestly didn't know that Brett was such a fan of PB and chocolate, but now you've given me ideas!
LOL
And sorry, no photos of the tomatoes. I am immensely grateful for them, however.
Brenda, they were pretty good, I think. I've always liked the combo of flavours since it gives me the sweet/salt mix that I frequently crave.
