After sending him to work with a Giant Cupcake Cake on his birthday and making the most decedent cake ever for the birthday dinner party, I made the yummiest mini cupcakes for the Saturday night birthday party with all our friends. (Said party may have involved piñatas. Like any nearly-30-year-old's party should.)
I made 100 mini cupcakes. There were 10 left at the end of the night. And those may have been eaten for breakfast the following day. Maybe. Definitely.
These cupcakes are the perfect mixture of salty and sweet. A sweet brown sugar cake that is delicious all on its own is topped with a buttery, not-so-sweet Italian buttercream frosting swirled with homemade caramel sauce. A sprinkle of rock sea salt and a caramel square make it pretty much impossible to only eat one. I have a whole guest list that will attest to this.
These salted caramel cupcakes are my go-to cupcake when I want to really impress someone. They are just so perfect.
