I adapted a Cinnamon Chocolate Chip cake recipe from Penzey's, turning them into cupcakes. I then decided that they tasted alot like coffee cake, and the alliterative name was born. One of my coworkers and I spent about 30 minutes trying to come up with other C foods we could put in the cupcakes. We decided against cayenne, corn, and cheese, but thought that cardamom might make a tasty addition next time. If anyone gives that a try, let me know!
