This cupcake caught my attention instantly with the bizarre flavors.
I enjoyed it and likened it to cornbread but was more moist. The cheddar cheese wasn't overpowering and pecans made for a delicious addition. The blue cheese taste was absent (I would double if not triple the recommended amount
I think everyone should try the recipe as is... however, having made it I would make changes including the following.
- Do not do the cheese crisp. The flavor was weird and tasted very oily.
- The icing should be something different (I love cream cheese but feel a different frosting would be more appropriate
- The recipe didn't call for it but I added a pinch of salt to the cupcake frosting
Overall delicious
