Wow! I took these little gems to a party last night and literally had people fighting over them! They are great on their own, but BEG to be served with vanilla ice cream. (don't be afraid of the rum...you can hardly taste it)

These are SUPER delicious!! I used Baker's unsweetened chocolate, and increased the vanilla to 2 teaspoons. These are not overly sweet, and have a fantastic chocolate flavor. Just to be really decadent, I put a scoop of chocolate ice cream alongside the cupcakes and drizzled chocolate sauce on top. Wow! Thanks Lisa, I'll definitely make these again!30Reply
