  1. These were great!! You can also sub canned pumkin puree, if you have that on hand. Very rich and tasty!
     
  2. great! i made half a recipe and used apple prune baby food because thats what i had. really good for 120 calories! might add more cocoa powder to make them more chocolate next time. thanks!!
     
  3. Awesome cupcakes, chocolaty and light and fluffy. The frosting was also light and the perfect topping. I'd assume you need to refrigerate any frosting you have left over for cupcakes you won't eat right away, as the cool whip will probably melt. As you can see from the picture, hubby loved these, you can't tell they're so low in calories! They don't taste like coffee at all, I think the granules just add richness to the cake.
