Maggie and Ella wanted to make cupcakes like Little Bear. So, I found a super-easy recipe and off we went! Ella gave up after the eggs were added, but Maggie stayed through the whole process. I wimped out on the frosting, just making blue (for Ella) powdered sugar glop for the top. We have a few left... maybe some buttercream is in our future. Click the title below for website.
