    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
