Easiest Way to Prepare Delicious Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes

Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes. This recipe was inspired by my favorite candy, chocolate covered cherries. The cupcakes are full of chocolate flavor and kept moist with the help of oil and butter. The frosting is a simple buttercream that is flavored with cherry preserves.

Moist chocolate cupcakes are topped with a decadent puff of creamy maraschino cherry buttercream frosting to create a pretty, homemade cupcake that no one can resist! The chopped cherries blend into the ultra-rich chocolate cake, giving these cupcakes a slight cherry flavor while keeping it super-moist with little added oil.
