Banana Cupcakes with Butter Frosting

This recipe came out very good. I found that 17-18 minutes is about the perfect baking time for the cupcakes. They turned out perfect and golden brown. I also used gluten-free all-purpose flour, because we were out of the regular stuff, and they still turned out great :) Thanks for the recipe, it's awesome :)

These are the best cupcakes my daughter and I have ever made (and we make a lot of cupcakes)! We made mini-cupcakes (made 48) and drizzled the frosting in thin lines with a kids frosting decorator tool :-)
