Wishing you all a wonderful day filled with pink hearts, red roses, dark chocolate and LOVE! Valentine's Day would not be the same without a sweet treat and cupcakes are a great way to celebrate the day. These cupcakes are rich devil's food topped with a creamy, buttery frosting tinted pink for the occasion. I piped on a rose design but swirls would look great too.
The cupcake crumb is light, fluffy and simply of divine - nothing dense or dry about these guys. The rich frosting is the perfect topper and super simple to make: just butter, powdered sugar, some cream, vanilla extract and voila - an amazing frosting! Tint it with some red or pink gel until you have the color you want. Initially I was thinking a deep red for these but when I saw the pink color I fell in love.
