Cupcake Bake-Off

The girls LOVE to be in the kitchen.  Whether they are helping me prepare dinner,

or I allow them free reign, they enjoy creating yummy food for us to eat.

They are also highly competitive.  My older two, anyway.

So the other day, one of the two decided to challenge the other to a cupcake bake-off.

Complete with time-restrictions, surprise ingredients, the whole thing.
 

 

  

 

It was such fun to stand back and watch as they made their own treats from start to finish, with zero help from me.

And it was a little funny to listen to the smack-talk that was being slung back and forth as they raced to beat the clock. 

 

 

In the end, Makenna made a delicious Vanilla and Oreo Cupcake . . .

 

 

 

And Sierra made a perfectly sweet and fresh Lemon Cupcake with Raspberry Cream Frosting.
 

 

And they were ALL delicious!
