caramel cupcakes with honey sea salt
At the end of June, our friend Chris flew into town from Tampa to spend a couple of weeks with us. For some reason that I don’t remember, I promised him baked goods on his first night in town. I was going to make red velvet cupcakes since I had some leftover buttermilk but then I thought I should try something else. I stumbled upon this recipe for triple caramel cupcakes and was instantly smitten. Had to make them! Stat!
These. Are. The. Bestest. Cupcakes. Ever.
The cake base uses a ton of brown sugar in it to give the cake a sort of caramel flavor to it. Then it has caramel stuffed inside of it. Then there’s caramel frosting on top!#!@!
Swoon.
It’s dangerous to make these. But you can bet that I will be making them again soon.
Kind of looks like a little hat, doesn’t it?
