1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
8 oz. package cream cheese, room temperature

Directions
- Mix all Banana Cupcakes ingredients on high speed in mixer for 2 minutes.
- Divide between 12 standard cupcake liners placed in a standard muffin tin and bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Once baked and while still warm, I cut out a small cone from the top of each cupcake.
- I filled each well with 1 teaspoon Dulce de Leche, I like to use a baby spoon to do this, then popped the tops back on and pressed down so they would stay in place. Makes 12 cupcakes.
