I've run into a couple YouTube videos since my last attempt, where I found, not surprisingly, I was not the first to attempt this sort of thing. One intrepid soul used real live mealworms in his version. I admire the authenticity and bravery, if not the wisdom. ;)
I also learned there was apparently a recipe that could be found on Equestria Daily, as seen in this video. As everyone seems to be calling these muffins Baked Bads, I will use that name as well. However, since my goal has been an edible version of these muffins, I will call my specific recipe attempts Not-So-Bad Baked Bads.
Some notes on my last attempt and how it changed my plans for my second attempt:
*I ditched the idea of it having a chocolate base (does not go well with lemon juice) and chose a standard muffin base
*I stuck with muffins, didn't try for a cupcake recipe. Although there admittedly are advantages to cupcake frosting (I still may later try a grey-colored frosting with 'hair' and 'worms' poking out), muffins ARE cooler. I'm so sorry for ever doubting that, I don't know what got into me, please forgive me Derpy XD
*I don't know if there was something wrong with the original recipe I used last time, but I'm pretty convinced those cupcakes were undercooked. Maybe my oven wasn't hot enough, maybe I mixed the batter too much, who knows. I ran my oven a bit hotter and was careful not to overmix this time though
Anyway, recipe and notes follow.
