White Chocolate Cupcake Recipe
Rate This Recipe
Using this recipe, you will be able to make twelve delicious cupcakes in about 40 minutes. In addition to the ingredients, I suggest you have two or three, medium-sized bowls, an electric mixer, cupcake holders, muffin tin and a wooden spoon at hand.
These cupcakes can be iced with frosting (as in the photo above) or covered in a chocolate ganache like those in the photo below.
I listed the almonds as optional, because my husband is not a fan, but I really like them with this recipe. For frosting, I suggest my white chocolate buttercream. Enjoy!
