One of my friends at worked asked when I would be bringing treats again. I asked her when she was working, and then asked her what she wanted. She just wanted something with "your yummy frosting", so I decided to make cupcakes and fill them.
Of course, I was rushed for time, and forgot to take pictures of the process.
Filling cupcakes is actually much easier than you might think. First, bake your cupcakes and let them mostly cool. Prepare your frosting, and put it in a frosting bag with a large tip on it (I like the Wilton 1m for filling). Just push the tip into the top of your cupcake, and squeeze in frosting until the top of your cupcake starts to crack. I like to fill all my cupcakes first, then go back and frost the tops.
For this batch, I tinted the frosting a pretty lavender (purple is my friends' and my favorite color), and used the Wilton 1A tip to frost them...

(I was disappointed that the frosting color faded the next day...I need to invest in better colors than the Wilton ones I guess).
And the insides...

These were really yummy, and got devoured at work.
