Yes indeed, it’s a special day! National Chocolate Cupcake Day to be exact!
… a favorite holiday for chocolate lovers and anyone with a sweet tooth!
For the best chocolate cupcakes ever, start with my recipe for Death by Chocolate Cake. Then, instead of a springform pan, scoop the batter into muffin tins lined with paper cupcake liners. (Fill the liners about two-thirds full.)
Bake the cupcakes in a preheated 350 degree oven for 18-22 degrees, less if you make minis, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the cupcakes completely and top with my Chocolate Ganache Frosting. Sprinkles and other decorations are optional!
Enjoy the cupcakes and bon appétit!
