Let me preface this by saying, watching too much Food Network can be hazardous to your health. I saw this on the Barefoot Contessa and thought, "I can do that." Then I proceeded to one up myself and decided I'm going to make my chocolate from scratch (did I mention this was my first time using a chocolate mold?). Let's just say, if the Contessa uses store bought you probably should too. I scoured Tupelo for coconut oil and then proceeded to cover our entire kitchen with a layer of chocolate. Despite all the extra work, I must say the dark chocolate was delicious and much better than the almond bark/baker's chocolate in the grocery store. This is definitely a chocolate lover's dream and a really cool birthday "cake." The inside of the cupcake was hollow and filled with truffles and chocolate covered pretzels and strawberries.
