Jealousy Chocolate Cherry Mini-Cupcakes
On the way home from work today, hubby says: “My Lean Cuisine had the best dessert in it” Talk about a slap in the face. I’m a baker, and my hubby tells me that the best dessert he’s had came out of a frozen meal?!?! The nerve of that guy! 
In a fit of jealousy I set out to prove him wrong and created my Jealousy Chocolate Cherry Mini-Cupcakes. Hubby did say that the cupcakes were better and even apologized for his stupidity. I kind of cheated because I didn’t have anything to make cupcakes with, but they were still good.

What a fun contribution to a virtual bridal shower. What girl doesn’t like cupcakes? Love that they’re filled too. Fantastic!

I make a rhubarb syrup that is wonderful heated up and served on vanilla ice cream. Simmer rhubarb just covered in water for a couple hours to pull the flavor and color out. Strain and add sugar to desired sweetness and bring to a boil like you’re going to make jelly but omit the pectin. I water bath it like
Jelly as I usually end up with a lot of pints. From your description this would be good on your rolls
