Well, I'm happy to say I think I'm back. What? You didn't notice I was gone? Well, life has been a little crazy lately, and it still is a bit busy, but I'm finally back home and not planning on going anywhere anytime soon! My sister had a baby last week and I headed out of town for a few days to be with her. I also have a very small photography business on the side and October is proving to be the busiest month of the year, as it was last year too. So much of my days consist of caring for my three little ones, editing pictures, and trying not to go crazy! haha I hope you'll try these cupcakes. I made them forever ago, but forgot to take a picture. And you know what, I made them again today so that I could take a picture, but I haven't iced them yet, so the picture will be delayed until tonight. The recipe makes 12 cupcakes, so I'm betting if you doubled it you could get a full cake. Just be sure to use a deep cake pan so it won't overflow just in case. These are delicious. I'm so happy to have white, chocolate, and yellow cake mixes from scratch now! YAY!

Welcome back! I love finding a recipe that makes only 12 cupcakes and prefer the white ones and especially with buttermilk; I'll be back to see your photo.
