Poutine is a favorite Canadian dish that originated in Quebec, a province in Canada.\u00a0 It’s made with French fries, smothered in gravy and topped with large chunks of cheese curds.\u00a0 Being that Canada is upon us tomorrow, I thought I would make the cupcake version of it to share with all of our viewers!<\/p>\n
The cupcake version consists of vanilla cake, and vanilla buttercream but you can choose any flavour of either for you version.\u00a0 In Canada we also have something called Hickory Sticks- basically they are thin slices of potato chip that look like mini fries- you can make do with slicing your own potato chips.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For the gravy that covers the fries, you can use butterscotch, or caramel, depending on what colour you want your gravy to be.\u00a0 As the cheese curds are usually large chunks of white cheese, I chose to use white chocolate chips, but you can use anything that is similar in colour, or shape to cheese curds.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For the video, we wanted to make sure that our viewers would be able to truly appreciate the look of poutine, so we “had” to go and get the best poutine there is in our town.\u00a0 We have one food truck in Cranbrook.\u00a0 One.\u00a0 It happens to be the best thing on the earth, thank goodness, and in addition to poutine, it also has fabulous burgers, and smokies.\u00a0 We headed down to Smokey Bro’s BBQ & Grill <\/a>prior to filming, and “had” to grab two poutines!!\u00a0 Life is tough.\u00a0
