Cupcake Thirteen

I made a half batch of these since the thought of figs kinda grossed me out and I am not going to lie I didn't try a single one...I took them to work and guilted others into eating them (which turned out not to be that hard). But since I never actually tried these if someone does, let me know what you think of them!
