    Milk Chocolate Cupcakes

    Published: Jan 21, 2016 · Modified: Feb 20, 2017 by Shiran · This post may contain affiliate links · 1 Comment

    Moist and chocolatey cupcakes topped with a perfectly smooth milk chocolate frosting that tastes incredible.

    Dreamy creamy milk chocolate cupcakes

    My blogger friend Carrian from oh, sweet basil asked me to write a guest post for her after she recently had her sweet baby that kept her quite busy, so I knew without a doubt I was going to say yes! Plus, her blog is amazing and you probably already know it.

    While I have my classic recipe for chocolate cupcakes that I love and have made a thousand times, these cupcakes are unique because they have the subtle taste of milk chocolate. I’ve been more of a milk chocolate than dark chocolate type of girl ever since I can remember, although recently that’s starting to change, which probably only means I’m getting old.

    These dreamy cupcakes have the creamiest frosting and you won’t be able to stop licking the bowl. Try. This. Today.

      Hi, Shiran,

      I just made your milk chocolate cupcakes. The cupcakes turned out great but the chocolate frosting didn’t. I think the chocolate was overheated as it ended up like the consistency of toffee. Would you have any advice or guidance on what happened here? Thanks so much! BTW I just love your website and have made several other sweet recipes that turned out fabulous!
