ROSE-FLAVORED BUTTERCREAM FROSTING/ICING FOR CUPCAKES
Rosewater has the same potency as vanilla extract and can be easily subbed 1:1 in recipes that use vanilla, but has a stronger flavor. I love buttercream frosting and wanted to share this discovering by sharing my stand-by recipe fixed for making it a rose flavor. Makes enough to frost about 24 cupcakes. This is a nice change from vanilla frosting! Prep time doesn't include butter softening time.

Steps:
- If you use unsalted butter-- add a couple shakes of table salt. It helps bind the frosting better and make it hold shape and last longer. Make sure the butter is good and soft too or else it won't mix right!
- With an electric mixer, cream the butter with 1 cup confectioners sugar and a little milk. Just enough milk that it gets the mixture to go. Beat in the rosewater.
- Keep adding confectioners sugar and milk, and beating on high, until you have a nice frosting consistency.
- Add a few drops of red food coloring to dye it pink.

DEVIL'S FOOD CUPCAKES
We mixed sour cream into the batter to add moistness and a subtle tang. Silky smooth ganache makes a rich topping; other options include seven-minute frosting and cream-cheese frosting. The chocolate curls are easily made with a few strokes of a vegetable peeler.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line standard muffin tins with paper liners. Whisk together cocoa and hot water until smooth. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Melt butter with sugar in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring to combine. Remove from heat, and pour into a mixing bowl. With an electric mixer on medium-low speed, beat until mixture is cooled, 4 to 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until each is incorporated, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Add vanilla, then cocoa mixture, and beat until combined. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture in two batches, alternating with the sour cream, and beating until just combined after each.
- Divide batter evenly among lined cups, filling each three- quarters full. Bake, rotating tins halfway through, until a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer tins to wire racks to cool 15 minutes; turn out cupcakes onto racks and let cool completely. Cupcakes can be stored overnight at room temperature, or frozen up to 2 months, in airtight containers.
- To finish, use a small offset spatula to spread cupcakes with frosting.
