​ Churro Cupcakes My wife recently baked these incredible cupcakes for my nephew's birthday party, and they were a HUGE hit. She recently started putting her best recipes on her blog, but she's still hesitant to share, so I figured I'd share it for her! ​ Check out her blog for more pics and details on the recipe: http://thehomecookbook.com/2018/11/27/churro-cupcakes/ ​ Churro Cupcakes Ingredients Cupcakes: 3 ⅓ cups flour 2 cups sugar 2 tsp.
