Description
Ground ginger and cinnamon are a match made in spice heaven, and they are also what give these cupcakes their warm and wonderful flavor (and your kitchen it's amazing aroma as they bake). Ground cinnamon is also mixed into the cream cheese frosting that's spread over each cupcake, and even more still is dusted on top before serving. Gingersnaps or other spice cookies would also make lovely and fitting garnishes, if desired.
