least every month, I have obviously fallen a little bit short......ah...well.....a lot of bit short. But! I have
been baking and I do have a lot of updating and catching up to do but
in an attempt to not overwhelm
myself and stay committed to
frequent blogging I will update little
by little. Okay so there are so
many ideas for baking and creating
that go through my cabeza every
day, but one that has consistently
been on my mind is making my own homemade dulce de leche. There are so many scary recipes out
there that include having a boiling pot on your stove for four or more hours and possible implosion
and imminent disaster in your kitchen if the process is not handled properly. With fear keeping me
from trying these possible disastrous ways and faith that I would find a more chica friendly way to do
it I never did make my homemade dulce de leche. Until now and let me tell you that the process and
The more calming method of making your own dulce de leche included a crock pot, time and
relaxation which were all definitely more my style.
with cream and swirl some of them with sweet salsa! Since this was my first time making whoopies I kind of kept the flavor combos simple but delicioso! The flavors that I made this time were chocolate cake filled with vanilla cream, chocolate cake filled with chocolate cream which are really quite common. But soon enough my adventerous side kicked in and I drizzled some with dulce de leche, filled some with chocolate chips and then my spicy side tried to take over and reached in my cabinet for my ancho chilli spice, but then I said ummmm not ready to kick it up just yet so I settled on bringing out my sweet Mexican Cinnamon also known as Canela instead. Once I was done making all of my little pies of heavenly sweetness I decided it was time to give them a try. Ay Dios Mio!!! They were delicious, nope not delicious better than that they were DELICIOSO! ♥ They were like little bites of sunshine right there in my mouth, they made me so happy I wanted to give them nombres (names). I decided that Solecitos would be the perfect name for these little bites of heaven because the word solecito in Spanish translates to "little sun" and these whoopie pies were just that small little cakes that would brighten anyones day! Okay so now I have named my Whoopie Pies as a whole, but didn't each flavor deserve their own special nombre too? Por supuesto! Of course they did after all that is half the fun, so with that the chocolate chip became " Chocolate Chip Whoopie Dough"
the sweet cinnanom chocolate one became " Mexican Whoopie" 
and the Chocolate-Vanilla one became " White House Whoopie" any ideas on how I came up with that one? Hehehe! Now with that all said this was just my very first aventura with whoopie pies and I can assure you that as much fun as I had with them, this will not be my last. I already have visions of more Whoopie dancing in my head......red velvet whoopie, chocolate peanut butter whoopie, butterscotch whoopie, whoopie in margaritaville.... thinking lime for this one, oohhh the possibilities. Stay Tuned ♥
