LULU'S CUPCAKES
Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Place paper liners in two 12-cup muffin pans.
- Prepare the cupcakes: Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Bring the sugar and 1 cup water to a boil in a saucepan, stirring until the sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Pour into a large bowl; add the chocolate and butter and let sit, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture has cooled slightly. Stir in the vanilla. Using a mixer, beat in the eggs, then mix in the dry ingredients.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans (about 1/4 cup batter per cupcake) and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in the pans for about 25 minutes, then transfer cupcakes to a rack to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Using a mixer, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Beat in 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar. Add the vanilla and 1 tablespoon heavy cream; beat until smooth. Beat in the remaining 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and 2 tablespoons heavy cream in batches, alternating after each addition. Beat in the marshmallow creme; set aside.
- Prepare the ganache: Place the chocolate in a stainless-steel bowl. Heat the cream and 1 tablespoon butter until just boiling, then pour over the chocolate; let stand for 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth. Add 2 teaspoons vanilla; let stand until cool but still glossy and liquid.
- Spoon the filling into a pastry bag with a medium tip. Insert the tip into the center of each cupcake top; fill until the cupcake is heavier (do not overfill). Dip the cupcake tops in the ganache. Chill for at least 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the icing: Using a mixer, beat the remaining 1 stick butter, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla, the milk and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Spoon into a pastry bag with a small tip; pipe onto the cupcakes to decorate.
CARROT CUPCAKES
To try to get my family to eat more vegetables, I often "hide" nutritional foods inside sweet treats. The carrots add wonderful moistness to these cupcakes, which have a rich cream cheese frosting. Now we can have our cake and eat our vegetables, too! -Doreen Kelly, Rosyln, Pennsylvania

Steps:

- Make the carrot cupcake batter: In a food processor, process the carrots until finely chopped.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the instant espresso powder and hot water until the granules dissolve. Let cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, whip the butter with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the granulated and brown sugars and beat until smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a small bowl, beat together the eggs and vanilla.
- Add the egg mixture to the butter mixture in thirds, beating on medium speed between each addition until fully incorporated.

- Add the cooled instant espresso and cold brew and beat on low speed until smooth.
- Fold in the carrots and Fisher Walnuts until evenly incorporated.

- Meanwhile, make the vanilla latte buttercream frosting: In a small bowl, whisk together the instant espresso powder and hot water until the granules dissolve. Let cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, whip the butter with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until fluffy, 2 minutes. Add half of the powdered sugar at a time, beating on low speed between each addition until just incorporated.

- Make the spiced candied walnuts: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the butter and sugar, and cook, stirring constantly, until light brown in color, about 3 minutes. Add the Fisher Walnuts and toss until fully coated. Remove the pot from the heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cinnamon, allspice, ginger, and salt.
- Sprinkle the spice mixture over the walnuts and toss until evenly coated.
- Spread the candied walnuts on the prepared baking sheet in an even layer and let cool completely, 10 minutes.
- To frost, place the tip of the piping bag at an angle at the edge of each cupcake and squeeze, rotating the cupcake and working toward the center, until covered in frosting. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes. Top each cupcake with a few candied walnuts.
- Enjoy!

SCRUMPTIOUS CARROT CUPCAKES
My daughter and I developed this recipe because we couldn't find one we liked. We prefer straight carrot cake, ie no raisins, nuts, or other add-ins other than shredded carrots. This was developed at 6,000 feet altitude; see notes for possible baking adjustments at a lower altitude.
