Red Devils Food Cupcake...the cupcake choice of the wicked? The cupcake itself if tasty enough to be classified as a sin...but the thought of icing made with sour cream is kinda weird! But if you can get past that thought then I guarantee you you won't be able to stop at one! Unless you have some freaky self control superpower...I should probably work on that skill this month!
