5 Dishes for a Memorable Brunch

Vanilla Cupcakes with Assorted Toppings

What really makes this meal memorable is the DIY (Do-It-Yourself) dessert.

Because the cupcakes are sliced in half, there's extra room for Chocolate Ganache, Lemon Curd filling, Vanilla-Bean Buttercream frosting, toasted nuts and coconut—or anything else you can imagine.
