Hurray!

It's National Chocolate Cupcake Day :)

I was unaware of the big event until last night when I read THIS post on Sally's blog.

Chocolate, cupcakes, and a national day of celebration....what could be better?

I found 2 recipes especially appealing;

THIS ONE for cookie dough frosted fudge brownie cupcakes.

 and

THIS ONE for snickers chocolate mousse cupcakes.

The kids will want to help make the cupcakes. They will lick the beaters and taste the batter with little wooden spoons. They will wait patiently for the cupcakes to cool and they will be delighted to frost and decorate them. When it comes time to eat the cupcakes, they will eat all of the frosting off the top and leave the rest for someone else.

That's just the way it works around here!

Happy National Chocolate Cupcake Day!
