Rocky Road Cupcakes

I also didn’t get around to posting these until now because I made them around the time I switched over to WordPress from Blogger (which was a nightmare), I even gave them a mention in my chapter about the process in How to Grow Your Blog, an ebook I co-wrote with some other amazing bloggers!

There’s just something about that Rocky Road combo: chocolate, nuts, and marshmallows. The way the three different textures and flavors come together is absolutely perfect! These cupcakes have a chocolate cake base loaded with walnuts and filled with marshmallow fluff in the center. Top with with a creamy whipped chocolate frosting, more walnuts, sprinkles, and mini marshmallows and you’ve got something of pure magic! These cupcakes are just so fun and pretty easy to make considering how many components there are to them.

I’ve really been loving making filled cupcakes since my mom bought me a cupcakes corer for Christmas last year! My White Chocolate Raspberry Champagne Cupcakes were the first filled cupcakes I made for New Year’s last year and they’re the most popular recipe on my blog! I also made up a batch of my Chocolate & Peanut Butter Surprise Cupcakes for my coworker’s party!

But I know it’s been five months and you guys don’t want to wait any longer, so scroll down for the recipe and get baking!
