These moist, moist cupcakes get their lovely shade of orange from the roasted sweet potato, the key player in this recipe. I love how sweet potato is so versatile. One of my favourite savoury treats is sweet potato fries, and yam is featured in a completely different (but awesome!) way in this recipe.  To make the surprise chocolate centers, you will need some chocolate Kisses (or large chocolate chips). We didn’t have any on hand, and the only kind available at the corner store was candy cane flavoured…so we went with big fat chunks of high quality bittersweet chocolate. The chocolate wasn’t a surprise in our cupcakes, but they were still delicious!
