Boobie Cupcakes The following recipe and images are from www.ketchupface.com. Dark Chocolate Cupcakes Ingredients: 2 cups granulated sugar 1 3/4 cups flour 3/4 cups cocoa 2 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 2 eggs 1 cup buttermilk or sourmilk 1 cup strong back coffee 1/2 cup vegetable oil 1 tsp vanilla Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 180 Degrees C. 2. Combine the first 6 ingredients in a large bowl. 3. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and beat with hand mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes (batter will be thin). 4. Pour batter into a muffin tin lined with paper sleeves. Fill almost to the top (I left 1/8th of an inch at the top of the paper). 5. Bake for 15-20 minutes and test with a toothpick inserted into the center. When removed, the toothpick should be clean with no batter sticking to it. 6. Transfer to cooling rack and cool completely before icing.

Decorating: These cupcakes are dipped in warm icing which gives them a smooth, glossy sheen. It also allows you to ice about 24 cupcakes perfectly in roughly 10 minutes. Ingredients: 1 large or 2 small containers of white store-bought icing Food colouring (gel works best) red, yellow, brown Pre-made fondant Icing the cupcakes: 1. Refrigerate cupcakes for 30 minutes prior to icing, this helps the cupcake stay together while dipping. 2. Transfer icing into a small, deep bowl and tint with food colouring to achieve your desired skin tone. 3. Microwave the tinted icing at 10 second intervals, stirring between each interval until the icing has the consistency of Elmers glue. 4. Dip cupcakes in warm icing up to the paper, let excess drip off, and set back on tray. 5. Let icing firm up. Note: DO NOT overheat the icing or it will separate and you ll need to head back to the store for more. If the icing is too thick it will pull on the cupcake and not give you a thin, smooth glaze. You may need to re-heat the icing halfway through the process to keep the perfect consistency. It sounds tricky but it s not, just give it a try. Creating the Nipple: Knead the colour into the fondant for the nipple colour - don t be too cautious here. I rolled the fondant out and cut out small circles (using the metal lid of a salt shaker), then rolled a piece of fondant into a snake, cut 1/2 inch pieces, flattened the ends and attached one to each circle (nipple style). I suggest using a tiny bit of water and some pressure to attach the mounds to the circles. Finally the tray of completed nipples were gently placed on the iced cupcakes and pressed into place VIOLA!
