Every nation has some special days, and all the citizens feel the proud of being part of that nation a little more on those days. This year it will be the 240th anniversary of the Independence Day for all the citizens of United States of America. Celebrating such an important day in an ordinary way wouldn’t be nice. You can make that day a special one in many ways, and here’s one of them: prepare something sweet with the theme of the day. My 4th of July Chocolate Cupcakes recipe may help you.
These cupcakes are so rich in chocolate flavor and are so yummy that, everyone will like them. Especially the kids feel so excited on special days and they remember all the celebrations with all the details. I bet they will be talking about how yummy those cupcakes were years later when they remember 4th of July 2016, just as you remember the beautiful old days and celebrations of your childhood .
4th of July Chocolate Cupcakes recipe is not one of those long and tiring cupcake recipes. In less than 45 minutes it will be ready. For the topping, you can use canned whipped cream, buy powder whipping cream stabilizer and prepare according to package instructions, or make your own whipped cream. If you use powder, using less milk than instructed will help you to get a thicker texture, which is great for cupcakes.
My son and husband liked these 4th of July Chocolate cupcakes a lot, and I will double the amount when I make it next time. Whipped cream is great for M&M decoration as they stick to the cream and never fall down. These cupcakes are so lovely with a cup of coffee.
I wish everybody a great Independence Day celebration. May your nation and beloved ones be with you all the time!
