The best of both worlds!

One of my favourite cupcake flavours (and the favourite of many of my family/friends) is Salted Caramel.  It's a light caramel cupcake with a delicious salted caramel buttercream icing. It is awesome. The only downside to this cupcake is that it doesn't help me out when I have a chocolate craving (which is pretty much everyday...) So, I was often faced with the decision - chocolate or salted caramel? Well, after some thinking I realized I didn't have to choose! I set off to create a chocolate salted caramel cupcake. I started with my decadent chocolate cupcake base and added some caramel.  The result was a super moist delicious chocolate cupcake with a hint of caramel.  I then topped the cupcake off with the original salted caramel buttercream.  This cupcake is probably my best to date (in my opinion.) It really is the best of both worlds!
