Chocolate Overload Cupcakes

More cupcakes this weekend, this time chocolate on chocolate. I used the Barefoot Contessa's chocolate layer cake recipe, more or less, with a rich chocolate frosting that I came up with. I needed something a bit sweeter than a traditional buttercream but didn't want the too-mild, back-of-the box recipes that were more like vanilla with a hint of chocolate. The end result was very chocolatey but sweet and creamy, too. The kids ended up with cake and frosting on their faces--and the adults might have, if no one else were around.
