My Mother saw a meatloaf recipe online and mentioned them to me. A few hours later, this was born. Meatloaf cupcakes! Thanks to Betty Crocker who posted the basic recipe here. I happened to have all ingredients except parsley (which I replaced with spinach) and real mashed potatoes which are hard to cook to the right consistency. I used an easy to make powdered potatoes package for the "frosting." As usual, I put my own spin on it.
Here is the recipe as I made it. Get creative with your own recipe!
