I used my
Frosted Funfetti Cookie Bars as the base for the cookies I placed on top of these cupcakes. I added the zest of 2 lemons and rubbed it with the granulated sugar before beating with the butter to give them a fresh lemony flavor. I also omitted the brown sugar. Instead of pressing the cookie batter into a pan I just portioned it out onto an ungreased cookie sheet (or line with parchment paper) using about 1 rounded teaspoon at a time, and then I baked them for 7-8 minutes.
