This is a classic chocolate cupcake recipe, because we all need the basics too. This one gets a twist from the caramel-flavored DeeBest chocolate. I served these with fruit dipped into the extra melted caramel-chocolate on the side (like those caramel chocolate-dipped gooseberries...yum).

Prepare the Cupcakes
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
-
In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and mix to combine.
-
Add batter to prepared pan. Bake 12 minutes for mini cupcakes; or 15–17 minutes for regular cupcakes, until tops are firm.
Prepare the Frosting
-
In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat margarine and shortening until smooth and fluffy.
-
Slowly add in sifted confectioners’ sugar and cocoa. Add vanilla, melted chocolate, and slowly add in milk, one tablespoon at a time, until frosting is desired consistency. You can add additional confectioners’ sugar or milk to thicken or thin the frosting as needed (thicker for piping, thinner for spreading).
-
Pipe onto cooled cupcakes.
