This place is pretty cool! I had a friend recommend it and just checked it out today. If I weren't trying so hard to lose 10 pounds I'd be making this recipe tonight! Somebody else will have to try it and let me know how delicious they tasted!

Twinkie Surprise Cupcakes-makes 36 cupcakes

1 Box Yellow Cake Mix
1 C. Pureed Summer Yellow Squash
1/2 C. Water
2 T. Vegetable Oil
3 Large Oakdell Eggs (or 4 T. Honeyville Powdered Eggs + 1/2 C. Water)
3/4 C. Meadow Gold Sour Cream
2 C. Lemon Grove Red Raspberry Jam
1 Container of Vanilla Frosting (optional)

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line cupcake trays with cupcake liners.
2. In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, summer yellow squash puree, water, oil, eggs, and sour cream. Beat until smooth, 1-2 minutes.
3. Fill cupcake liners 1/3 of the way. Dot each with raspberry jam, then cover with batter until the cups are 3/4 filled.
4. Bake until the tops of the cupcakes are golden and spring back to the touch, about 20-25 minutes. Turn the cupcakes onto wire rack to cool. Once they are cooled, frost with vanilla frosting, if desired.

That is so gross! It reminds me of pizza with squash under the pepperoni!

You guys are babies! It doesn't change the flavor--just adds moisture. Try it!
