Molly's Cupcakes

Prior to visiting Molly's Cupcakes, I had only been to one Cupcakery before and that was Crushcakes in Santa Barbara.  I came across Molly's Cupcakes in one of my many Chicago food Yelp searchers.  It came up when I entered "best desserts Chicago."  After a long day of shopping with my mom, we decided to take an hour detour and go to Molly's Cupcakes instead of going home.  We were so glad we did.  The cupcakes were delicious and truly decadent.  My favorite was the peanut butter cake with nutella filling and a nutella buttercream frosting.  To me the more decadent the better and this one was intense.  We also got the Kahlua (chocolate cake, kahlua cream filling,coffee buttercream, chocolate curls) the Mixed Berry (blueberry cake, raspberry blueberry filling, buttercream and fresh berries), and the Coconut Castaway.  The coconut was our favorite.  It has a custard type filling and the frosting was topped with toasted coconut.  Unfortunately, the specific ingredients of this cupcake aren't listed on the website but I'll be going back to find out, especially since there are about 15 more flavors that I need to try.
