Happy Birthday.. that sounds sooo amazingly good. Im always banned from my kitchen. Fiance does all the cooking and doesnt want help. Oh okay if I have to sit on the couch and watch tv I guessss its okay. lol

brookelynpaisley

He told me to go Knot it Up. I don't think he's ever actually wanted me to do that.

Oh my gosh, they smell so good so far.

alyssalowe

Haha, knot it up. I LOVE IT! The smell of bacon and maple syrup would keep me in the kitchen trying to steal pieces.

vsgal

Oh man, I just wiped drool off my keyboard.  Those sound amazing!

Happy birthday.  Any birthday that involves bacon is fine by me-enjoy!

I watched that tonight and wanted to make cupcakes myself!!!

You are VERY lucky!

nda_roxybabe

mmm! When should I come over?

brookelynpaisley

UPDATE: These cupcakes are uh-maze-ing, y'all


Also, DH made a list of who at the office can have them. Totally funny, because it made me realize who I talk about at work. He allocated one of my coworkers, Ted, three of them and put a bacon T on top of one.

Hahahah that is too cute

I just poked back in real quick to ask how they turned out.   They look great.  Next time , tell Mr. Brookelynpaisley to make enough for the rest of us.  Glad you enjoyed them.

Happy birthday! I saw your cupcake on FB and was somewhat perplexed. Have never heard of anything like this!

brookelynpaisley

vsgal, I will relay the message

Sun - he saw them on Food Network's Cupcake Wars. They had a challenge where they had to use sweet and savory ingredients, and one baker made a maple cupcake with bacon. There's also a place called Voodoo Donuts that has a donut with maple frosting and bacon on top.

Brooke- I think you should go to the macaroon shop with me. The problem is they close at 3 pm...

brookelynpaisley

Uh, I'm sorry. WHAT macaroon shop?

nda_roxybabe

I lie. Macaron, I meant macaron. It's in tempe, its supposed to be one of the top 10 in The US

brookelynpaisley

Holy crap, I had no idea! Phx GTG at the Macaron shop!

nda_roxybabe

Yesss! I just found out when I was looking for somewhere to deliver macarons. I never thought there'd be a good local place.

brookelynpaisley

Okay, looked it up. Why did I think macarons had coconut?

nda_roxybabe

Because macaroOns do. Way, way different though.

brookelynpaisley

Ohhhh!! Now I understand why you were so quick to make the distinction. I've seen pics of these macarons everywhere! I had no idea. They look so tasty!

brookelynpaisley

Alrighty, gotta give the lap top up to DH. Have a great night, girly!
