Now I know I wrote a blog a few months ago about not comfort eating, but this week I have been feeling ill ( who gets colds in the summer! I mean come on!) and I wanted a treat. So… I decided it was ok to bend the rules, in addition these aren’t 100% From Scratch but as I say I am ill so…. it doesn’t count.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also I always feel so much hungrier when I have a cold so snacks are essential.<\/span>
\n <\/span><\/p>\n

I hope none of you are feeling under the weather but if you are whip these up and a guarantee you will feel a bit better. If not you can always get out the vix and cuddle up on the sofa in front of some olympic sport.<\/span><\/p>\n

Peanut Butter and Jam Cupcakes<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

I know these might sound very rich, but in fact if you steer clear of ultra creaming icing which this recipe does then they are not sickly and very satisfying.<\/span><\/p>\n
