Stages

Unlike many I follow, I have very little flair for food presentation. Tasting good is the main requirement for most things I prepare. Our grandson likes my cinnamon roll poke cake so that is what he is getting tomorrow for our Thanksgiving day dessert. I decided to make it in cupcake form so anyone could have their own individual piece without the need to cut a cake. After I poked them ithey looked a little like faces to me. A brown sugar/cinnamon mixture is poured into the holes and then it is covered with a buttercream icing. Not really pretty but so, so, good!
I particularly like the authentic touch of the condensed milk dripping down the can!

They look delicious and sound even better! I was wondering why they were poked, looks like cute faces ;-)

It sounds so good I just wasted a bunch of time looking at recipes. All I got was hungrier. Nice set up to show the stages. Cute little faces—🤪

I love how you set up each part of the preparation for the cupcakes from cake to brown sugar yumminess to the icing. Can I have one?😁

They look very calorific as well as terrific,
November 25th, 2021  
Yum. Yes please.

It's a great picture because it tells a story. And I never thought about doing this with cupcakes!

What a great idea to make the cake into cupcakes. So much easier to serve and to store, in case there are leftovers. I think your presentation is more a story of how they are made rather than glamorous finished results.

Wow, those look totally awesome

I've only made 9 X 13 poke cakes but cupcakes seem like a great idea.

Nice photo--like the arrangement of the ingredients and the cupcakes in progress. They sound delicious! I don't do pies well, so Brandon opted for brownies for Thanksgiving dessert.
