Mission: Cupcake ~ Week 13

I promised the hubby this week that I would make him a healthy cupcake {he is starting to complain about how the weekly treats are contributing to his waistline…I don’t see it, but I’ll comply}. So I did some research and found these carrot cupcakes made with whole wheat flour & applesauce…and carrots, of course {any cupcake with vegetables in it has to be healthy right???}. I couldn’t resist cheating a tiny bit on the recipe, so I topped them with an indulgent cream cheese frosting…but I did use a little less powdered sugar than called for. I sprinkled some lemon zest on top & the finished product looked quite lovely. And the taste? Not too shabby for a somewhat healthy treat! Well, at least J was happy J
