Kid Cupcake Recipes – Chocolate Cookie Butter Cupcakes

Our Family is very fond of Cookie Butter and we love discovering new ways to incorporate it into our desserts. Any excuse to hop in the car and head to Trader Joe’s to stock up is reason enough. This week we decided that we were going to try our hand at this Kid Cupcake Recipes Chocolate Cookie Butter Cupcakes. Now I was pressed on time this week so I used a boxed cake mix and doctored it up and it turned out fabulous. I did make the frosting from scratch so you can consider them homemade. Once you try this recipe you will want to make another batch because they will disappear before your eyes.
