cupcake disaster!

Hi all
I attempted to make cupcakes from a spone recipe today and ended up with lovely but burnt on the top shallow messes!!

any ideas what I can do rather than throw them away-they are too shallow to cut the tops off and ice-is there such a thing as a crumb cake or something made from leftover cake? or did I imagine that?!

thanks in advance

    Take the tops off and call them biscuits. Most children will happily eat them, in my experience!

    I would just stash them and eat them secretly, make some more :cool:
    Would they be ok in a trifle?

    They would be fine in a trifle. Just cut off the burnt bits.
