Add about 1/4 cup batter to cupcake liners. Sprinkle on Crumble Topping. Bake for about 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
To decorate:
Let cupcakes cool completely. Then you can add either Whipping Cream or drizzle them with Glaze.

Beat heavy whipping cream until stiff, gently fold in powdered sugar and a splash of vanilla. Amount will depend on how many cupcakes you are baking.

For the glaze, combine powdered sugar and a splash of apple juice or milk. Amount will depend on how many cupcakes you baked. Pour glaze into a plastic squeeze bottle (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000VMBF6?ie=UTF8&tag=hoosihomem-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957) and drizzle over cupcakes.
