My mom and I - and my in-laws, too! - enjoy a good cooking class. In St. Louis, one local grocery provides a variety of cooking classes that we often attend. My favorites are the baking classes. Last year for my birthday, my mom took me to a cupcake class. Imagine. An entire class devoted to cupcakes.
H.E.A.V.E.N.!!!
The coolest part? The recipes were EASY! In fact, this one starts with a Duncan Hines' Red Velvet Cake mix. Yup. That's all it is. Bake into cupcakes. But you and I both know the fun is in the frosting, right?
The frosting is Jello's white chocolate pudding mix combined with one cup of cold milk. Then whipped to stiff peaks with 2 cups of heavy whipping cream. Because not all the grocers in our town carry white chocolate pudding, I've discovered you can substitute white chocolate mousse mix.
When you bite into it, you're expecting a bit of a heavier, cream cheese frosting, probably. And you know that would be just delicious. What I love about this one, though, is it's lightness. It's a hint of sweet, but not too sweet. It is truly just delightful. You'll have to give it a try and let me know what you think!
Cupcake liners can be found here. But in the StL, you can find them at Dierberg's!
Enjoy!

I feel like one of Pavlov's dogs. No bell needed just the site of a RED VELVET CUPCAKE. MY FAVORITE!
