Granola Cookie Cupcakes

1. 1

   1. Preheat oven according to directions for your cupcakes. Prepare cupcake batter. Line a cupcake tray with paper liners. Place one cookie at the bottom of each liner. Fill liners to 1/2 or 2/3 mark with cupcake batter and bake as long as recipe requires (usually around 15-20 minutes).

   2. When done remove the pan from the oven and let cupcakes cool fully. Using a small knife (I like to use an upside down, medium-sized icing tip) cut a hole in the top center of the cupcakes. Pull apart a granola cluster and put it into the hole. Don't press it in too tight. Use the very top of the cut-out part to close the cupcake top again.

   3. For the chocolate glaze, melt cocoa powder and margarine in a small saucepan on medium heat. Once melted, set aside to cool. In a bowl stir together icing sugar, milk and vanilla. Mix in the cocoa mixture. Dip the top of the cupcakes in glaze or spoon glaze over the cupcakes. Sprinkle with a few remaining granola bits.
