Picnic Cupcakes

Today, my mom asked me to make up this cupcake recipe she found from TASTE OF HOME.

I liked how these didn't need the icing, because the filling gave them that little extra sweetness.
They were quite simple to make.

Doesn't that look really good?

My brothers are always ready for their part of my cooking and baking.
TASTE TESTING
They both really liked them.
They are very moist, and would travel nicely to any picnic.
I will be making these this fall to take to school!
