Clean Eating: Pumpkin Cupcakes (w/ Chocolate Pumpkin Frosting)
Our Orlando Accounting Clerk returns from her wedding tomorrow and the Orlando attraction is throwing her a "Wedding Celebration Luncheon" to celebrate this wonderful occasion. I offered to bring a dessert. Smart on my part? Maybe. If I would have just bought something at Publix, unwrapped the delicious tidbits from the tell-tale Publix wrappings and disguised them as my own creation. But BECAUSE of this challenge, I put the beautiful, mouth watering desserts down and proceeded to the baking aisle. I never bake for these things... I never actually bring a home-made item. So... in the spirit of trying new things, I decided to make cupcakes. I found a fun "clean" recipe for Pumpkin Cupcakes with Chocolate Pumpkin Frosting - all healthy (clean) and homemade. That is definitely a first for me. Making my own icing?! What have I gotten myself into?
Well... I'm very proud to report that not only was I able to successfully create FABULOUS looking cupcakes... they were also amazingly delicious. Who knew that a pumpkin cupcake would be so yummy. Much less one that I made?! Don't go getting any ideas boys... I might have a hidden talent for this domestic thing but I certainly don't have the heart for it. Now... maybe I'll steal just one more of these babies before tomorrow. Yum! PS - if you want the recipe, lemme know.
