Whole Wheat Cornmeal CupCake/Muffins with Caramel Frosting

My Oven is baking busy all these days, so for Magic Mingle #3 too, i chose to bake something interesting, so it doesn’t stay waiting for my Family’s attention. First i attempted to bake Broa/Portuguese Corn Bread, but me and yeast are lover’s who are still having a Pillow-fight, so it didn’t turn out well!!!!

So, again in the evening i tried to bake these muffins, thank god, they came out well. After tasting, we felt we need some more sweetness in the muffin, so i added Dulce de leche frosting. Needless to say, they vanished!!!!!
