But I didn’t want my cupcakes to be plain like the Hostess… it had to be full of LOVE for this special holiday! So, I made the creme hot pink and decorated them with classic Valentine’s Day words and symbols. The recipe is at the bottom, click on it to enlarge. Enjoy!

I used my Moist Chocolate cupcake recipe for the base… mmm it’s soooo good.

The creme filling was so smooth and yummmmmy!

Here’s a finished dozen, ready for delivery!

As you might remember, in my original recipe, I filled the cupcakes with the ganache, leaving the top open to expose the ganache.   This time I dipped the top of the cupcake in the ganache, creating a shiney, chocolatey cap for the cupcake.   I chose a higher quality chocolate for the ganache using a 70% cocoa Lindt chocolate.  Also modified was the buttercream recipe, adding more sugar & Bailey’s.  I like how these turned out & think they are a much better quality cupcake.
