I'm still alive...I promise! Life has been moving at breakneck speed for me lately. I have been busy at work. Busy baking, baking, baking. Baking cinnamon rolls, cinnamon swirl bread, buns, muffins, scones, berry crisps, cookies, bagels, pita bread, cake and cupcakes. Recently, I baked about 125 of these scrumptious Chai Spice Cupcakes. These were a huge hit. They are laced with mini chocolate chips as well as bold and fragrant chai spices and chai tea. They are topped off with a delicious swirl of cinnamon chocolate buttercream frosting. Yum!
I found this recipe over at The Sweetest Kitchen. They used a chocolate cinnamon ganache frosting on top but I was feeling lazy so I went with the butter cream for this time. I'll try the ganache next time.
Please click HERE for the recipe. Trust me, you won't want to pass these up! ;)
Hope you all are having a wonderful week.

These looks delicious. Pure bliss!
I've never made chai cupcakes before, they look amazing!
These look so good, Kim. I wonder if chocolate frosting would have been good on the spice cakes I used to make all the time you were growing up. I always used vanilla. Next time I come up I hope there will be more than just one cupcake left. :)
WOW!! look amazing and georgeous!!
I'm trying to imagine chai laced with chocolate...and yeah, it's pretty amazing!
I love creamy chai teas and lattes. I know I'm going to love this as well...
Sounds very delicious!
You are the cupcake queen!
I do love chai tea so these are a winner for me.
125? That's impressive! They look beautiful!
Chai is one of my favorite flavors...love it with the addition of chocolate :)

Dearest sweet kim, these cupcakes look delicious!! I hope you get some time to rest and relax during these busy times! Have a lovely merry happy sunday and love to you!
