M@ango chocolate cupcakes

the most cherished mango season will disappear in some time and what will follow, is a long wait again, for the arrival of the king of fruits. really its worth the tittle. the pulpy, golu-molu body, makes it an object of attraction, affection & satisfaction. i used to gorge on mangoes long back, but due to increasing weight problems, i find it difficult to do that now. that's why i keep on searching for ways to incorporate mango in foods. 

cupcakes as i have said earlier also, is an obsession, a super relaxation for me. and this batch of cupcakes were baked just for the cast & crew of the movie. and to my amazement everyone liked (which i had least expected). this mango babies are super easy to make, takes very less time. one can incorporate any other pulpy fruit also in place of mango. while mango also helps in getting rid of sun-tan, but it is more famous for satisfying our taste-buds. there are people are so obsessed with his majestic yellow fruits, they thy search for reasons to gorge on it. i know of a lady who for an entire season had breakfast-lunch-dinner, all with mango.


and this cupcake also includes another obsession of many. specially me, Chocolates. this cupcake has both white & dark chocolate. while i had grated the white chocolate and incorporated it into the mixture, i did not want to add the chocolate-chips in it,if you want you can.i had rather put it on top.

i love to have it warm fresh out of oven. but if u want it can have it with any icing.this cud be a perfect gift for people you like. this babies serve as breakfast, lunch or late night snack. i couldn't snack on it, since i had given away all. but that was pretty much made up by the smile on peoples face after having them. never mind, will make another batch to satisfy my sweet tooth.
