Chai Chocolate Cupcakes with Spiced Buttercream

Babies! Almost every single one of my girlfriends and sister had one or is having one this year.  I am proud to say none of them are a traditional "Mom".  They are smart, savvy women that I can learn from when the day comes for me...

This tea party was a baby shower for my friend "Ritzy".  She definitely doesn't go for the powder blue pastel crap and neither do I.  Her roots are Indian, so her mother and aunt cooked up an amazing feast of South Asian goodness.  I was in charge of sweets.  I decided to bake a chai tea/chocolate cupcake with spiced buttercream with a recipe adapted from the amazing Cupcake Blog. Hubby contributed Paul Newman's alphabet cookies as decorations.

Pair these with, of course, a good chai latte with lots of cardamom.
