Recipe Testing

I came up with a great idea for a new cake and frosting combination, and my oldest daughter's school also happened to be having parent-teacher conferences.  In my pre-kid life, I was a teacher myself, and so I know the long hours put in by the hard-working teachers at parent teacher conference time.  So, I made up a batch of these cupcakes and took them to the teachers to test for me.  These are brown sugar and spice cupcakes with maple cream cheese frosting and a bit of fresh nutmeg grated on top.  They're sweet and just a bit spicy, with the tangy cream cheese and hint of maple flavor.  It was definitely a good combination!
