churro cupcakes.




recipe please???Chat Icon



RECIPE! :)

For mine, I didn't do the dulce de leche (didn't have time!) and instead of dipping the tops into cinnamon sugar, I sprinkled some on top of the cream cheese frosting. YUM! They were delicious. And I made extra churros... those were AWESOME!
