"Fake" Cupcakes

From FamilyFun.com

The first surprise here: there's not a grain of sugar in these cupcakes. The second surprise: your kids will love them anyway.
Meat Loaf
1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
3 tablespoons ketchup
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Potato Frosting
3 cups mashed potatoes
Food coloring


Step 1
Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line 12 muffin tin cups with foil bake cups.

Step 2
In a large bowl, mix together all of the meat loaf ingredients until well combined. Divide the mixture evenly among the lined cups (the liners should be about three quarters full).

Step 3
Place the filled muffin tins on cookie sheets and bake the cupcakes for about 15 minutes or until cooked through.

Step 4
Divide the mashed potatoes among three small bowls and stir a few drops of food coloring into each batch to create blue, yellow, and pink pastel frostings. Spread a generous dollop on each cupcake. Makes 12 cupcakes.
