Chocolate Cupcake Day- October 18th

What can be better than a chocolate Cake? Chocolate cupcakes!

Why? Because it's personal and you don't have to share it with anyone! 😉

The cupcake originates in 1796, when in the recipe for chocolate cake in the American cookbook of Amelia Simmons, it was written "cake for baking in cups".

This book was the first known cookbook and baking book written by an American.
