Nutty Compound Confections

The Cupcake Project Chocolate Banana Baklava Sweets are Mouthwatering

— September 7, 2011 — Lifestyle
The ridiculously decadent Cupcake Project Chocolate Banana Baklava sweets are mouthwatering and irresistible. Cupcake Project is positively bursting with various incarnations of the ever-classic cupcake, and is responsible for several cuisine-cross pollinations. But these baklava cupcakes are so ingenious you can't help but smack your forehead and wonder: "Why didn't I think of that?"

This sumptuous example of confectionery cross-breeding is the brainchild of the baking-savvy food blogger known only as Stef. These over-the-top cupcakes combine a layer of gooey brownie with buttery chunks of banana topped with the classic baklava filling of nuts and honey. The entire layer cake is enveloped in delicate sheets of phyllo pastry, then baked in jumbo silicon cupcake liners. So, if you have a few hours to spare, whip up these bad boys stat and you too can experience a whole new level of shameless self-indulgence with these Cupcake Project Chocolate Banana Baklava sweets.
