We love milo and usually enjoy anything that contains milo and these milo fudge cupcakes were no exception! These cupcakes are quite dense, but we still loved them!
They went well with a hot cup of coffee or milo and are really quite easy to make. This is one recipe that I know I will be making over and over again.
