2. Mix together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl.

6. Scoop batter into prepared pan and bake 20-25 minutes until golden brown and tops spring back when lightly touched.



7. Cool the cupcakes on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely.



8. For the maple glaze, combine powdered sugar, vanilla, maple flavoring, butter and milk.

9. Stir well until the mixture has the consistency of a glaze.

10. Finally, cook up a ton of bacon till it’s nearly crunchy, then cut up the strips into teeny squares and sprinkle ‘em on top of the frosting.
