Title:

Recipe: Chocolate Beet Cupcakes with Sour Cream Ganache Frosting — Sweet Veggie Treats from Samantha Seneviratne

Descrition:

Beets are one of those divisive vegetables — either you love them or hate them. I happen to love them. I'm a sucker for that sweet flesh and gorgeous fuschia color, but I know plenty of people who play for the other team. Beet-haters, I ask that you suspend your disbelief for one moment. Try not to discount the chocolate-beet cupcake based on your feelings for the vegetable alone. Open your heart to beet cake because the final product is far better than the sum of its parts.
