Oh yum - I'll be making these this fall. Thanks!


These were awesome! I made a few changes: 1/2 of the flour I used was white whole wheat, I added 2 tablespoons of flaxseed meal and I added a little nutmeg with the cinnamon. Be sure to check your powdered sugar for lumps. I just dumped mine in and had to beat it to get the lumps out. The frosting really tastes great. I plan on using it for the next birthday cake I make. Thanks for the recipe!
