Everyone loves a moist, chocolate cupcake, especially on Valentine’s Day. This is an easy fool proof recipe that is sure to impress your sweetheart this Valentine’s Day.

French Madeleines
Last summer, my husband bought a cookie from Starbucks. Offended? Me? No. My husband just bought a cookie wrapped in plastic from a store. Which is basically code for “I wish my wife would make these cookies at home”. And make them I did! I’ve been making them since. And now

To the person who first combined chocolate and pumpkin, thank you! You have lead me to this beautiful and delicious creation… I attended the NW Chocolate Festival with Hussein a few weekends ago.
