Sure. Caramel may be a bit more fall or winter flavor. But, I couldn’t let this final month go by without another caramel cupcake. It’s just SO GOOD! Salted Triple Caramel Cupcakes (recipe below from Sally’s Baking Addiction).
The cupcakes are light and chewy and oily. They have a fairly strong, sweet caramel flavor. Stronger than other caramel cupcakes I’ve tasted. But not dark or bitter.
The frosting is very, very thick. I added a fair amount of cream just to get it all mixed together. It has a sugary, sweet caramel flavor. Dark and smooth, but very sugary at the same time.
These cupcakes are very caramely! If you’re a caramel fan, you’ll really enjoy these. They’re dark, but not bitter. Pretty sweet. Simple and yummy.
