How to decorate cupcakes?
Using a 1 M piping tip, pipe on a rosette. Itโs okay to practice a few! After frosting each cupcake gently press the sprinkles onto the side. (amazon affiliate link) I find it's best to put the sprinkles on right after frosting each cupcake or else the frosting will harden slightly and the sprinkles wonโt stick.Chocolate Cupcakes Recipe
I used my super easy doctored chocolate cake mix from a box recipe for these, however I have an amazing from scratch chocolate cake recipe you can use too.Chocolate Frosting Recipe
My homemade dark chocolate buttercream is incredible. It uses Hershey's Dark Cocoa Powder and is a chocolate lovers dream. Not only are these some of the best chocolate cupcakes (and who doesnโt love chocolate cupcakes!) but the dark chocolate buttercream is amazing! Youโll definitely want to lick the bowl! These cupcakes are a great Valentineโs Party treat for kids too! Make them for a school party or give them to the teacherโs!What sprinkles do I use for Valentine's Day Cupcakes?
Another plus to these cupcakes, besides being chocolate and topped with a delicious frosting- is the sprinkles. If I have to choose between a dessert with sprinkles or without I always go for the sprinkles. I typical buy a few different sprinkles from the store and then mix them together when I make these types of fun desserts. That's what I did for my pink and gold cake, and my easy Valentine Day Chocolate Cookies. I love the texture and how festive they make things. Are you the same?Valentines Desserts are so fun!
