Soo... umm... yeah. I guess I should be completely honest. I didn't make these. I skipped the very first MS cupcake. I know that's really terrible of me, especially with it being the very first online baking club I've joined. But if I'm being honest, I just didn't like the cupcake. I mean no offense to Betty our founder, but it just wasn't up my alley. Chocolate Salted-Caramel Cupcakes. I'm not a huge chocolate fan, especially in cupcake form, but the salted caramel was what sealed the deal even more. Caramel in small amounts or mixed into things properly, I can tolerate. But when salted and dolloped on top (and then added to chocolate), I cringe. I know this is strange, but it's me.
Really my biggest issue was the fact that no one in my house would eat them. My dad loves chocolate but would in no way have tried the salted caramel and my sister was pretty much the same. My mom and I are die hard vanilla fans, and even though we may have tried one or two, I couldn't justify making 56 minis!
I will tell you that I will most definitely participate in next month's bake which are zucchini-spice cupcakes. So I hope no one's too upset with me. In any case, please check out the other bloggers who did participate in this month's bake-along. You can find all the participants on EAT MY CUPCAKE's blog on the right.
Looking forward to seeing your treats next month! These were quite rich - definitely for chocolate lovers :)
