About
Not a healthy desert, but who wants their desert to be healthy?
Makes 24 cupcakes.
You can replace 2 T of the buttermilk with vanilla brandy for a deeper flavor.
Ingredients up until the vanilla bean are for the cake, everything after is for the icing.
I don't have a mixture and was just able to use forks and spoons to mix everything and it turned out fine.
