Brookie’s Chocolate Chip Cupcake Essay
As soon as I saw the Devil’s Food Cake mix over the oven I knew I was in for a treat! Next, I saw the delicious chocolate chips and couldn’t stay still. I knew I had to wait till my mom cooked it but I was so anxious to stuff my face with delicious sweetness.
Ever since I was a little girl my mom and my nana would make these delicious moist Chocolate Chip Cupcakes for all occasions. My family and I all have a sweet tooth. Whenever we get hungry for something ono and sweet we always have the ingredients ready to be put together. This dessert has been with us through out three generations and has some really fun memories.
One of the unforgettable memories was when I was a little girl my family and I would go beach every weekend and my nana would make us our moist, chocolaty, and heavenly Chocolate Chip Cupcakes. We would all fight for the last cupcake as if it were a contest. Another memory I have about our family recipe we all enjoy is every holiday such as Easter, Christmas, Halloween, etc. we would always put a peep that represented that day. When ever we have to make a lot of the peeps for a party or some type of special occasion my job is to poke the peep with a toothpick and stick it into the tasty cupcake.
“Mom what makes this cupcake so irresistible?” I asked my mom …. “I think the sour cream because it makes all baked goods moist”, she replied. From now on I am always aware of putting sour cream in what ever I bake because I really despise hard cupcakes. I asked a couple of my family members on how they like to eat their cupcakes and some of their answers were first the muffin top then the bottom, or the bottom then the top, or just the top. This recipe has been with my family for three generations, and my nana taught my mom how to make it and I am slowly learning how to make it as well.
I asked my mom “What do you look forward to when making these ono cupcakes that everyone loves?”… And she replied “eating and taking the bite out of the warm, fresh baked, delicious chocolate chip cupcake. I also love decorating them to look cute and give out!”
If you ever came to one of my family get together you will see my cousins asking my mom if she made the cupcakes. Another similar story is that after I bring my cupcakes to school that one time the next day they ask if I made some more. I will never forget what this little recipe brought to the family and how many memories we had with them.
