Chocolate Cupcake with Mascarpone Frosting

Chocolate Cupcake with Mascarpone Frosting - delicious, quick and easy dessert recipe to make for Valentine's Day party or to treat a loved one! | BirdsParty.com

Valentine's Day is 'round the corner, and if you're looking for a quick and simple, yet tasty dessert for your party, or simply to pleasure a loved one; then this is it! 😉

This is my go-to quick route when baking cupcakes. The frosting also takes no time at all to make, and no need to get the mixer out!


Plus, I find the combination of chocolate and Mascarpone such a marriage made in cupcake heaven...so creamy and luscious! YUM!

When baking cupcakes for photo shoots, quick is what I need. And Mascarpone has proven its worth time and time again in the frosting department!

I also love that it's pure white, which doesn't alter the color of the frosting, unlike (yellow-is) butter! So I tend to use it quite a bit in my cake and cupcake decor recipes, like the churros cake I made a while ago on Snapchat.

For the decor of these cupcakes I wanted something pretty in pink, so I used a combination of sugar sprinkles in addition to those DIY cupcake heart toppers, using craft supplies from BirdsParty.fr (we now ship to EU!). But you can also use the printables topper hearts from our Valentine's Day kit from BirdsParty.com

Okay enough chit chat, and on with the recipe! 😀
