Chocolate Salted Caramel Cupcakes are the perfect cupcake recipe to make for a special occasion or for entertaining. Yet, obviously you don’t need a reason or occasion at all to make these!

I have been known to make cupcakes on a lazy afternoon, for a nice treat after dinner. 

This time of year I do a lot of easy cooking with casseroles and BBQing, so taking the extra time to make a nice dessert is still within means.

Each time I bake, I set some aside and share with friends and family. It’s also nice to get that second or third opinion on the recipe – and this one is a total winner from everyone who’s tried it.

In fact, I’ve had many requests for more!

      Of course. I’d say keep the same temp and just keep an eye on them. the time will be less but not sure how much off the top of my head.
