Truffles? Cupcakes? Why choose when you can have both!
Take our melty smooth dark chocolate truffles. Pop them inside the cupcake, and enjoy the extra meltiness. Plus, that pinch of sea salt means it's a taste explosion.
Thanks to the lovely Natalie (@nataliemyskow) for this recipe, which can be adapted to be vegan or non vegan. That's our weekend sorted.
