Martha Stewart Cupcake Club: Zucchini Spice Cupcakes

This is a perfect recipe to post today because it is my birthday! Happy 27th birthday to me! We will be celebrating in Disneyland with the kids today and then off to Sea World tomorrow. I am so excited!

This month's Martha Stewart Cupcake Club recipe is Zucchini Spice Cupcakes. I have said many times before how much I love baked goods with either carrots or zucchini, so I was thrilled to make these.

They were super easy to make and smelled great while baking. I made half with nuts and half without. I think both were amazing! The cupcake itself was pretty much zucchini bread in cupcake form and very delicious plain. But then I added the cream cheese frosting and I was in heaven! These cupcakes are AWESOME!!!

Thanks to Sugar B for starting this wonderful club! I can't wait to see what we are baking up for October!

  16. hey, I am so sorry I have never visited you as a MSCC baker. Darn so we are both baking along through the flour sugar MS maze. he he I'm sure your family is enjoying the addition to their array of food choices. I have enjoyed the addition even though I didn't really grow up eating cc's. Lots of other folks love them and I love to share so it works. Glad to partner with you. See you next week, I guess.
