Happy Birthday to KFB - Lemon Cuppies

Kolkata Food Bloggers is celebrating its very first birthday and we members are so excited! Cannot belive that it has already been a year and we have come a long way. Most of you know the story how I became a part of this group - through an informal chat with a co - blogger and now it has become an integral part of my life. Apart from all the fun and learning that happens through the group its the friendships that I truly cherish! In a very short span I have made some dear friends and cant imagine my life without them. 
It was Sarani's brainchild that we celebrate KFB's first birthday by bringing in finger food and dessert recipes and have a virtual party ( we had a real one too) But this was an initiative to get many of the bloggers together under one platform. So keeping in tune with the theme I made some Lemon Cuppies - these are the eggless version and requires very minimum effort. I dressed up few of them with butter cream and sprinkles to keep up the party spirit.
