My coworker has his birthday coming up, and he is usually the one to make the birthday treats for everyone in the office. Well, this time, I decided I’m going to make his birthday treat, since he’s always so generous to the rest of us!

I’ve created this recipe from M&M Choco-Cupcakes because M&Ms are my coworkers favorite candy. He always has a bag of them at his desk to snack on! I’m definitely making these cupcakes again because I’ve made the best frosting recipe that is silky and creamy without being too heavy. I’m never looking for a different chocolate frosting recipe ever again!
