"I'm having a lazy moment & browsing the net when I "tripped over" an intriguing recipe at homedotivillagedotcom where Martha Vining was acknowledged for this recipe. The intro said "Adults love these cupcakes. So make more than you need for 1 event & freeze the rest. Stored in an airtight bag, they should keep up to 2 months." I haven't made these sweet treats, so I hope that you will be as intrigued as I was, give this recipe a try & enjoy the outcome (Time does not include time for cupcakes to fully cool)."
