Holiday baking has been a long tradition in my family, so I'm very excited to be in the kitchen baking some of my favorite treats.
Chocolate and peppermint are a must during the holiday season, so I combined the two and made these yummy cupcakes.
My grandchildren were thrilled when they saw them, and it was a real struggle for them to wait until after dinner to have one.
The key to successful baking for me, is using the highest quality ingredients that I can. Butter is one of those ingredients, and I always like stocking up on it at this time of the year.
