Cupcake #3

Chocolate Toffee Caramel CupCake

I have made these before for a bridal shower and Relief Society Party, they are a crowd favorite so usually when I get asked to do cupcakes people remember these and want them. They are the most time consuming cupcakes I make. There are so many steps and they are a very messy project but they are amazing so it is worth it.

Step one.....
Make the cupcake. I make a chocolate cupcake sometimes I even put toffee pieces in the batter to add more flavor.
Step two...
Make frosting. I make a butter-cream frosting which is a little time consuming because you haveto us a double broiler to get the eggs and sugar (which I ran out of so I ran to my amazing neighbors and took the rest of theirs) to the right temp before fluffing it. Once the frosting is made I add homemade caramel sauce to it so it tastes like caramel whip-cream :)

Step three...
Frost a layer of frosting on the cupcake and put in freezer.



Step four...
Make chocolate sauce while cupcakes are in the freezer, then let it cool so it is not hot.

Step five...
Dip cupcake into chocolate sauce and cover the edges with toffee.

Step six...
Put cupcakes back into the freezer so the chocolate sets.

Step seven...
Frost the top of the cupcakes and add caramel syrup on top.

They take a long time but it is so fun to share the finished projects with friends and neighbors.
