Lavender Cupcake!

Today I tried a new lavender cupcake recipe (something I was a bit apprehensive to do) and I'm so excited about it! I tweeked an exisiting recipe I had for another flavor and the final result was great! Since lavender is such a delicate flavor, I didn't want to use too much of it and get a soapy, "tastes-like-lotion" kind of cupcake, but I also wanted there to enough of the flavor to be able to recognize. The final result: An amazingly sweet, lavender cupcake that is so yummy! Since it's such a unique flavor (and floral-y), I think it's something that you'll either love or hate...but I think most people will love it! It's got just the right amount of lavender to go with the sweet, vanilla cake. My husband actually said it's one of his all-time favorite of my cupcake recipes! (And I thought he wouldn't like it all since he's such a traditional cupcake kind of guy. Ha!) I would have had a picture to post, but I made such a small batch that they all got eaten (thanks to our little 4 year old crumb snatcher) before I could take one! I guess I know what I'll be doing in the near future and I'll post the picture as soon as I can!
