Caramel Cupcake From D's Just Desserts

Over the holiday weekend, I attended a surprise birthday party. The birthday girl has been wanting a caramel cake, and I have been wondering where I could order one.   D's Just Desserts, a bakery in Prospect Heights made a  delicious caramel cake and cupcakes for the party.

There's no such thing as too much caramel on a cupcake, is there? Plus recipe link

According to blogger Icy Violet's Kitchen there isn't! She tried out this Joy the Baker recipe for dulce de leche cupcakes and this is what she came up with:





From Icy Violet's post:

And because the original post had so many links back to bloggers who've also tried the same dulce de leche cupcake recipe, here's a few more:
