cupcakes, melanie karmazin's eggnog

By

This recipe is adapted from the Best Bake Sale Cookbook by Gretche's-rtolt-Witt. King Arthur Flour is supporting Cookies For
Kids' Cancer, the charity that receives the proceeds from the sale of the book. The idea is to put together a bake sale to benefit
cancer research; many of the recipes that were used in the sales are collected in the book. We made some adaptations, but this is a
perfect individual holiday dessert, especially when dressed up with a bit of our eggnog fl.avoring.-S.R.
