I am so happy to introduce new cupcakes for you today. Let me tell you something I didn’t actually plan to make brownie cupcakes they just happened by accident. I was working on the chocolate cupcakes and I had everything planned how they will look and what frosting will I choose. During my process of preparing everything from scratch I’ve decide to give brownie cupcakes a chance. I love brownies and I can eat them all the time. Same for my children so I was happy that these cupcakes were very successful.
