RICH CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES



Rich Chocolate Cupcakes image

My mom made wedding cakes throughout my whole childhood. People would always tell her that her cakes were not only beautiful, but the best tasting cakes they have ever tasted. Her secret was to combine a good scratch recipe with a boxed cake mix. It would make a light, moist cake which held up well when stacked. I have never strayed from her recipes and use them every time!

RICH DOUBLE CHOCOLATE BROWNIE CUPCAKES



Rich Double Chocolate Brownie Cupcakes image

I love making homemade brownies. I started off baking them from boxed mix but recently decided to learn to make brownies from scratch. I found a really easy recipe in an old cook book and after making the brownies a few times, I started experimenting with different ingredients and substitutions. The following recipe is my final product and if I do say so myself, these brownies are delicious. They are chocolaty and moist. I enjoy making everything in individual cupcakes, but you could easily make these in a pan. Just adjust the cooking time a bit and make sure to watch them closely. When baking brownies, I take them out of the oven a little bit before they are done because they will continue cooking while they cool off. This way they are never hard and over-done.
