I made a variation on the pumpkin cookies. When I made the cookies, they were more like cakes so I tried them as cupcakes and they turned out great! I did the same reciepe, although I used coconut sugar instead of honey and I did not put nuts or chocolate chips in. But it would probably be great with the chocolate and nuts too. Fill the cupcake tins about 2/3 full and bake at 350 for 17-20 minutes.
Enjoy!!!
