There are really no words to describe these mini bites of heaven. They come in perfect portion control too since they are in individual cupcake liners. So….no guilt! Plus the topping is made from fresh fruit. Blackberries really do make one delicious topping! The crust on these is made simply from a nilla wafer that gets extra yummy when it bakes up in the oven. These would be perfect to bring to any party and I guarantee they’ll be begging you for the recipe!
