Story behind the Recipe:
From Family Circle - June 2009 - Editor Page
"Always looking for ways to practice what we preach, the Family Circle editorial and advertising staffs joined Share Our Strength's fight against childhood hunger. We held our own Great American Bake Sales in our offices and collectively raised more than $800! We stirred up all sorts of sweets -- caramel brownies, cappuccino cupcakes, lemon-berry scones, crumb cakes (see below, Jonna Gallo Weppler's go-to recipe, from Family Circle, of course) and more.....etc."
I have not tried this recipe and have never used a box mix, but, I am tempted to try this and thought someone might find this interesting.
