*Banana S'more Cupcakes*

*before I start talking about myself, this needs to be said. These cupcakes are UNBELIEVABLE. You can't even understand. Just give them a chance.*

Today has been a very hungover day indeed.
I'm starting to worry that this blog in itself will provoke AA meeting invitations, but in truth I'm not a big fat alcoholic I just love to blog on lazy mornings after going out. And I'm a total lightweight.
I blame my parents for this entirely.
Ever since I can remember, my parents have told me alcohol is the cure for everything.
If I had a stomach ache, my dad gave my brandy.
The other day I insisted I didn't want to go out for dinner with a sore throat and temperature, and my mum assured me that a Mojito would be a good idea.
Even recently I tried to take some paracetamol, only to realise that there was no water to take it with. My dad replied 'what are you talking about, there's scotch right here.'

My parents really aren't crackheads, but they just love the juice. Who knows.

I woke up today with glitter all over my face and assumed that I had finally turned into a fairy and that Peter Pan and I could run away together but then that it might not work out because he always gives all his attention to that ungrateful Wendy cow who literally arrives on his turf, and then takes ALL his friends back to freaking London, so he's alone in Neverland with some cunt who wants to hook his guts out but secretly has a big fat gay crush on him. Sorry...I take issue with parts of Peter Pan.

So it turned out I wasn't a fairy, which is fine in the long run considering complications shown above.

I had a lovely cup of tea and a french macaroon and then Jessy asked if I wanted to get high, make cakes and watch pretty little liars. I thought, well that's what I was planning anyways, so definitely.

This is Jessy:

She technically belongs to my sister, but I like her too so I'm allowed to play with her.
Jessy and I collaborated different cupcakes to make a whole new special cupcake, and Stephanie pouted because she didn't get to hold a cookery book.
(if you don't remember who Stephanie is, she's the posessive person from the best cupcake in the entire world)

Here's what stingo jessy and I came up with:

FOR THE SPONGE
80g butter
280g caster sugar
200g plain flour
40g cocoa powder
1tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
240ml milk
2 bananas
Chocolate sprinkles
5 digestive biscuits

FOR THE TOPPING
200g caster sugar
4 egg whites
100g chocolate

1. Mix together the dry ingredients and butter

2. Mix the eggs and milk in a jug and mix into batter

3. Mush up the bananas and then mix them into the batter

4. Pour into cupcake cases 3/4 the way up
5. Sprinkle the chocolate on top of the cupcakes, then put the digestives in a ziplock bag and mash them with a rolling pin, sprinkling half of them on top of the cupcakes
6. Cook for 20mins at 170C

7. While the cupcakes are cooling, whisk together the egg whites and in a saucepan heat up the sugar with 150ml of water and let boil for 5 mins, then carefully pour into the fluffy egg whites and keep mixing until shiny and firm
8. Using a knife, spread the meringue onto the cupcakes creating spikes and waves.

9. Put under a grill for a few seconds to create golden peaks.
10. Sprinkle with remaining digestive crumbs, then stick a piece of chocolate on top for decoration.
