I have been wanting to prepare this recipe for a very long time. As always preparing cake for me is interesting. A savory cake was quite new to me, as I have never heard of it ( I know don’t hit me guys 😛 ) Getting this to Fiesta Friday #25 . This turned out awesome, just prepared it in the evening for tea time snack. We finished of all the cup cake for dinner now 😀 As making my husband eat dinner is a big deal for me.
