So well, this recipe was supposed to go up the day of Harry Potter Book Night but I was  extremely tired and then I was off camping the next day for the weekend. Then on the monday, I started university so well. I am  finally getting this, up.

If you don’t know Books to the table is a new series in which I recreated food from or inspired by books. So for this instalment, i present to you Butterbeer cupcakes.

These are seriously amazing. They are moist and melt in your mouth. I make a lot of cakes and desserts and this is by far one of the my favourites that I have ever made.

It’s also pretty easy to make, there is 4 simple steps; cream the butter and sugars, mix the wet ingredients in, mix the dry ingredients and then cook.

I haven’t tried butterbeer but after looking online and re-reading the books, I think this is similar to what butterbeer taste like.
