Does your picky eater like cupcakes? Have we got a trick for you

Meandering around this wacky Internet this morning, I stumbled upon this site, crazy meezer. The blog post that caught my eye was “Cupcakes for dinner.”
Surely, I thought, she isn’t talking about feeding actual cake to the little ones for supper (hey – don’t tell me the thought hasn’t crossed your mind on a particularly picky night!). But I was intrigued.
Turns out, she basically makes a rissole (had to look it up, but it’s basically a croquette or similar sort of meat pie) and cooks it in cupcake cups. (They’re pink on top b/c they’re mashed potatoes either colored pink or maybe they’re mashed red potatoes? Either way, that’s potato, not icing.)
Everyone loved ‘em and finished their dinners.
What gave me even more heart was Leigh’s assurance that she’s a terrible cook. That means I could even make these and possibly have the whole family asking for more.
(A meezer, by the way, is a slang term for Siamese cats, of which Leigh has four.)
So what’s been your most creative way to get the little ones to eat their dinner?

Thanks for sharing my cupcakes Amy, glad you liked them
A risole is what you guys would call a meat ball.
