Rolo cupcakes with salted caramel buttercream
I made Mini Eclairs with salted caramel and banana from this recipe http://simply-delicious.co.za/2012/07/04/mini-eclairs-with-salted-caramel-fresh-banana/ last week after a hellish day at the office where the only thing that would cheer me up was baking only to find that, because I had used coarse salt instead of salt flakes or Maldon salt the salted caramel was much too salty. It was perfectly useable especially when I made the salted caramel cream but I didn’t top the éclairs with more caramel preferring rather to go the more traditional route and decking it with melted milk chocolate. This did however leave me with leftover salted caramel and I had to make a plan to use it up before it turned into fudge.
Since caramel goes really well with chocolate and you find both in Rolos, that gave me an idea. For the recipe and more information visit:
