The last thing I baked was a Viennese Apfelstrudel. It was the most popular thing at my company's bake sale.

You baked it with alcohol, correct? How did you ensure the cupcake didn't turn out dry? I made cupcakes with bailey's irish cream and it made it far too dry for anyone's taste.

Peanut butter cookies. I was going to make a peanut sauce to layer on them but I was too tired and too drunk to do that for my coworkers.

Baked a 2-in-1 pie -- half main, half dessert. Turned out fantastic.

I should likely stop making these as often as I do, while good, I feel that my roommate is getting fat as he eats most of them and is lookin bigger lately.

Now that I am more awake what I do is use the linked recipe.

I dont do anything diffferent save that after the batter is mixed I run it through a sieve to remove as many of the air bubbles as possible, after that I continue as the recipe has you go until it comes time to grease the molds, then I use the traditional mixture of 50% clarified butter and 50% beeswax, I apply it to warm molds then invert them over a baking rack and put them in my fridge to cool down for a few min. Then I pour the batter in the molds put them on a baking sheet on top of my pizza stone and bake them. I had to play around with baking temps and times because I live in a place with a mile of elevation though.

All in all it took me baking a batch nearly daily for two and a half months to get down right because this is the first thing I learned to bake.
