Chocolate raspberry truffle cupcakes
Cupcakes and muffins
Who ever said there was no such thing as too much chocolate never had these cupcakes. Loosely based on the towering chocolate cake I made for Taylor's birthday, these cupcakes sure are rich. Like, better have a whole glass of water or milk or something on hand when you eat it or you're in big trouble. I thought it was too much. Taylor ate 2 in one sitting. That should tell you something. The ganache frosting is really thick. I liked it because it wasn't as sweet as buttercream, but the chocolate was almost too rich and overpowering. If only I could arrive at some happy medium... the fluffiness of buttercream with the sinful chocolaty-ness of the ganache. Thank goodness I didn't decide to pipe on huge swirls like I sometimes to, I think I would have passed out in the process of eating it. But, if you're the type that likes your men rich and your cupcakes richer, well, bake away! These are the cupcakes of your dreams.
