If there’s one thing that kids ( and me) can’t resist, it’s the chocolate chip cupcake. Having attended public school, the cafeteria never served chocolate chip cupcakes. Last year while teaching in a private school, chocolate chip cupcakes were offered everyday! They had a special chef that baked them on the premises daily. Now I’m not going to lie, I ate those cupcakes almost everyday for breakfast ( I’m going to blame it on the pregnancy okay!).
This morning I was missing my students and the cupcakes came to mind so I got up and tried to bring back old memories. What better way to start the day than with 30 little faces that love you and with a chocolate chip cupcake hm hm..
I used mini chocolate chips inside the cupcakes and dipped them in chocolate glaze after baking.
