Kudos to Pam at Lobsters and Fishsticks for reworking this recipe into a cookie. What a great idea, reminiscent of the breakfast cookies we made a few weeks ago.
As usual, Duff at Lonely Sidecar treated us to her humorous thoughts on these cupcakes.
Will my friends actually eat a cake whose batter is the color and consistency of baby poop?
Will my husband still speak to me if I tell him that the fiber content of our dessert is my way of telling his colon that I love it?
And Jilla of My Next Life pointed out that these cupcakes really couldn't have been bad.
Now on to this weeks Carrot Cake Cupcakes with Lemony Cream Cheese Frosting. Can you say "YUM"? Of course, cream cheese frosting will make feet taste delicious, so this was a no brainer.
Thank you!!
