Samoa Cheesecake Cupcakes Recipe

Our oldest daughter has been a Girl Scout since the beginning of elementary school. She’s now in 3rd grade and that means we’ve been doing to the selling of Girl Scout cookies for four seasons. I sure do miss eating Samoas when the season ends and when we run out.

Recently I tried out making a Samoas copycat cheesecake cupcakes recipe. They turned out delicious and my family loved them!
