These chocolate cupcakes are filled with delicious cherries and are topped with a vanilla buttercream. I think I died and went to Heaven… For the record I tried to style these to look as appealing as possible for you but for my personal enjoyment I add a smear of buttercream on top and a pile of cherries in the middle. These chocolate cherry cupcakes are decadent, chocolaty and filled with a sweet cherry filling. My moist, light and fluffy chocolate cupcakes recipe is the base for these cupcakes. While the filling is a sweet cherry filling, topped with a bakery-style vanilla frosting.
