pear cupcakes 300x225 National Cupcake Day: The Best Cupcake Recipes to Make at HomeWhile it’s fun to venture to many of the amazing cupcake bakeries around the States, it’s also fun to bake cupcakes at home. Most cupcake recipes are very straightforward, merely requiring a mixing bowl and spoon. Put the batter in a muffin tin to bake and you have delicious cupcakes less than an hour later. Of course, cupcakes aren’t cupcakes until they are topped with frosting. I highly recommend a flavored buttercream or cream cheese frosting, unless you want a fancier ganache or whipped cream. Here is a round-up of the best recipes for home cooks, they are all straightforward and yield amazingly delicious cupcakes. Enjoy!

2. Snowy Lemon Cupcakes

4. Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting

5. Grasshopper Mint Oreo Chocolate Cupcakes

6. Pear Spice Cupcakes

Awesome recipes! I didn’t even know they had a “National Cupcake Day”. I may have to try this out with my little one tonight. She is always asking to make cupcakes. Thanks!
