GRADUATION DAY CUPCAKES
Celebrate commencement day with a diploma of a different sort: tiny replicas made of airy tuile cookies that are curled around a skewer and neatly tied with strips of sour candy. To make the template for the tuile scroll, use the lid of a plastic storage container.

Steps:
- Using an offset spatula, spread frosting on middle of cupcakes. Cupcakes can be refrigerated up to 3 days in airtight containers; just before serving, bring to room temperature and top each with a tuile scroll.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare template: Cut a 2-by-3-inch rectangle from the center of a piece of flexible plastic (discard cutout center). With electric mixer on medium speed, beat egg white and sugar until combined. Beat in flour and salt. Add butter, cream, and vanilla; beat until just combined.
- Place template on a Silpat-lined rimmed baking sheet. Spoon 1 teaspoon batter onto center; spread thinly with an offset spatula. Repeat to fit six on a sheet. Bake, rotating sheet halfway through, until pale golden around edges, about 6 minutes. Immediately loosen cookies with offset spatula; turn over, bottom side up. Starting at a short side, quickly roll one cookie halfway around a skewer, then roll up other side around another skewer until two sides meet. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool. Repeat with remaining tuiles. (If cookies become too cool to shape, briefly return to oven.) Repeat with remaining batter to make 24 tuiles.
- Cut candy belts into quarters lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 4-inch-long strips. Wrap a candy strip around each scroll, and tie to secure. Scrolls can be stored up to 1 week at room temperature in airtight containers.
