Death by Chocolate

I went very light on my workouts last week.  I just felt uninspired and...well...lazy.  Not to mention, there was a holiday, and food comsumption, and everyone deserves lazy days.  I had been craving something completely indulgent last week so I went ahead and made these:

Yes, this is a death by chocolate cupcake.  It's a double fudge cupcake with a gooey brownie in the middle with double chocolate fudge icing...

I had a difficult time eating this one cupcake.  I didn't frost all of them...thank goodness!  This is one cupcake that does NOT need frosting.  Trust me.  This is coming from a girl who thinks cupcakes are just vessels for frosting to get to my mouth.  I made 24 of these bad boys, ate this one and gave the rest away.  Katie took about a dozen to work with her where they were promptly inhaled, then I took 10 to the pub with us on Saturday and gave them to our friends.

Literally, the moistest, most chocaletey cupcake I've ever made, but one was enough to satisfy my craving for indulgence.

So since I didn't frost the cupcakes, I have enough double chocolate buttercream to put 20 diabetics in a coma.  I don't want to eat it, but I don't want it to go to waste.  I asked my facebook friends if anyone wanted a cake, but surprisingly, I didn't get any takers.  Maybe they didn't think I was serious.

I guess I'll have to make some cupcakes tonight and have Katie bring them into work again.  I just can't waste buttercream and I can whip up some vanilla cupcakes easy peasy.  Escpecially since the mockingbird is still at it and I am still without sleep.

Are mockingbirds allergic to chocolate?  I may have a way to get rid of him, if so..............
