Buttermilk chocolate chip crumb cupcakes
Cupcakes and muffins
Can you believe it's been a year and a half since I've made a cupcake? That's just not right. I almost called these muffins, because, well, cupcakes without frosting are basically muffins, right? And you could argue that these are completely acceptable to eat for breakfast. I won't judge. But they are cake, truly, through and through. Further proof that a cupcake doesn't need a mile-high mound of frosting to be delicious, a simple dusting of powdered sugar is more than satisfying. The texture is maybe the most striking part of these cupcakes, incredibly light and delicate with a crunchy, buttery crumb topping. That with the perfect smattering of miniature chocolate chips and a snowy white dusting of powdered sugar, you don't even notice the lack of frosting. Cupcake perfection. The recipe was inspired by a cake on pinterest, the original source of which took some serious sleuth-work to uncover (thank you, Google Images!) Converting it into cupcakes required a bit more scientific
