Mock Hostess Cupcakes
This weekend I am making cupcakes. I am making mock hostess cupcakes. You know, the ones with the white squiggles on top of them? I found a recipe on google and has chocolate cupakes covered with a chocolate ganache and has a marshmallow creme in the middle. They sound really good. I have never made ganache before so I am interested to see how it works. I know it comes shiny if you frost while its warm. I hear you have to dip the cupcake into it, and swirl. One thing I am confused about is, how do you get the ganache not to DRIP off the sides?? or is it supposed to drip? I have found nothing written about this so I guess its trial and error. I will post pictures when I am done. Wish me luck!
