Chocolate Cupcakes

     Chocolate on chocolate on chocolate... problem with that!? ... didn't think so...  But seriously, doesn't your mouth just salivate looking at that tall creamy frosting!?  (I've been known to eat the lids off cupcakes and throw the bottoms in the trash...not encouraging, just sharing...calorie saving tips)  I digress, my Chocolate Cupcakes turned out simply amazing and Gluten Free.  Each of the 9 rich treats are only 180 calories, 5.7g net carbs and 13.7g protein, for one cupcake and 3 Tablespoons frosting.  These are so macro friendly that eating the whole thing is a guilt free dream come true!  So long past bad habits!  :)
