I love baking new cupcake recipes. I combined two internet finds with a little bit of modification and was quite pleased with the results. I started out Saturday morning with twenty-four cupcakes, and now, only one is left. I did give plenty away, but my long ride on the elliptical was well worth it. Hope all of you have a great week. Bake these as soon as your oven preheats!
