After having a baby, I feel a little depressed after thinking about getting back in shape. You may have realized by now that our famiy loves dessert. Trust me, we have tried to go without, but it just makes life so unbearable! Rather than giving dessert up completely, I decided to try a dessert I don't have to feel as guilty about. Even my husband devoured these cupcakes!

I tried these cupcakes today! They are delicious! They are perfect for those of us that just can't go without dessert!
Being a college athlete, I am definitely very cognoscente of what i eat, but I really am a sucker for sweets, and we had our body comp test (body fat) test this afternoon and this had been my only "sweet indulgence" in the past month (with the exception of Thanksgiving) and not only did it help aid me in keeping my body fat down but it was delicious and I didn't still crave more sweets after, I was completely satisfied for dessert and didn't want anymore and that's a huge win factor for me these days with food!
