Happy birthday, America! (Apple Pie Cookies)

I've been told that pies are the next cupcake. I wasn't convinced. Yes, you can make pies in adorable miniature form in a cupcake pan. But it's just not that portable, you know? They crumble, the filling falls out, it's a whole plate and fork deal. But I think I've found the solution.

Upside Down Toffee Apple Cake

After a January with 6 baking projects, I slowed way the heck down. I did bake twice in February, but I'm only now getting around to posting about the second one, upside apple toffee cake. It looks like I won't have time to bake anything in March--we're almost halfway through!--but we'll see. Suddenly in the middle of February my free time decreased drastically. Strange.
