Do you know anyone who likes chocolate cupcakes?

Our youngest granddaughter, who is such a sweetheart, has always enjoyed chocolate cupcakes. This photograph of her was taken a few years ago, and it always makes me smile 😊 How she got so messy eating a delicious chocolate cake we didn't like to ask - but I remember it was a hot day - so I think the chocolate was quite soft! LOL! "Grandma have you got some wet-wipes please" 

But talking of chocolate cupcakes reminded me of Libby at Ditch the Carbs site keto/low carb recipe for them. She uses almond flour, they are naturally gluten-free, sugar-free, and with only 3g net carbs are perfect if you are diabetic, but can also be enjoyed by non-diabetics 😋
