Chai Cupcakes
Chai cupcakes are the perfect fall dessert. They are warm and spicy, with just the right amount of sweetness. They are made with a homemade chai spice blend and topped with a fluffy buttercream frosting.
Fall is my favorite season, which always means baking fall-inspired things in my kitchen for my family, like chai cupcakes with warm spices like cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and ginger.
I can’t help but love watching the leaves turn color, and the weather get cooler. It is the best time to start baking!
