I made this for 11 year old Girl Scouts. They loved it! It is easy to make. I put 1 heaping tablespoon of spaghetti sauce on each, but it could have used more. I was pleasantly surprised that the "cupcakes" kept their shape. Not gourmet by any means, but lots of fun! My daughter wants these for her birthday dinner.
