So, I stole this recipe from How Sweet It Is who I was introduced to by my friend e {she also has a blog you should check out here}.  These cupcakes are some of the most fun little fellas I’ve ever made!  They are yummy and delicious and super cute!  The recipe only makes 12 little cakes which is perfect, because lord knows I don’t need even 1 much less a whole big batch of 24 cupcakes.  Enjoy!
