More Martha (and I'm loving it)


As previously stated, I love Martha. In her February issue, she provided a few enticing cupcake recipes, one of which was for boston cream pie cupcakes... I've never been a huge boston cream pie person, but a friend requested one, so I retaliated by making these lovely cupcakes (a cake just isn't as cute as lovely little ganache-covered minicakes).
You can find the recipe on her website-I recommend making the vanilla pastry cream first and letting it chill while you prepare the little cakes. Then the ganache! 
I used a nifty pastry bag my friend gave me for my birthday to literally inject the cream into the cupcakes, rather than cut them in half as Martha had suggested. Just like twinkies. Heheheh.
They're pretty great, and relatively simple.
