I just finished baking devils food cupcakes that two of my grandchildren will come by to decorate as turkeys for Thanksgiving. I have no idea where I found the recipe I’m using, but what you’ve shown here are so darn cute too. And you are overly nice to do all this legwork for us. Happy Thanksgiving.
