Let Them Eat (Cup)Cake!

My daughter's Brownie Girl Scout troop recently had their end-of-year ceremony.  I was forced to...er, I mean, I decided to make a bunch of vegan cupcakes for the event.  I used the "Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World"  recipe for golden vanilla cupcakes and used the buttercream frosting recipe that I dyed green.  Topped with brown sprinkles (Girl Scout colors are green and brown), they were very pretty and they were the HIT of the ceremony!  I am not the only parent who brought cupcakes (although I usually bring treats to these events to make sure that my own kids can get SOMETHING), the vegan cupcakes were gone by the time the whole thing was over.  I got lots of compliments, and a few recipe requests.  Oh, and my kids got to eat "junk food" (not really, wink, wink), which they think is the bomb!
