The Simpson County Cooperative Extension Service Family and Consumer Science Agent set up at the Franklin Simpson Chamber of Commerce Health Fair to promote Health and Wellness. A total of 150 people were present at the Fair where they answered questions on the prize wheel and sampled chocolate pumpkin snack cakes, showing nutritious alternatives for snacks. 100 percent of those who sampled the chocolate pumpkin snack cakes liked the snack muffin. One participant reported making this recipe as a healthy snack for her co-workers the following week. Others have reported that these were very good and have given this recipe to others.
