Deliciously unhealthy

After all the talk the other day debating whether a "healthy" cupcake was either a muffin in disguise or a complete waste of time, I got on a cupcake kick and wanted very much to make my own chocolate dipped cupcakes as this cute little shop in the United Kingdom creates:


It didn't work out so well for me, but it still wasn't a complete fail.  I melted a combo of milk chocolate and peanut butter chips, but didn't temper the chocolate correctly so it would be runny.  In the end, the result was ganache-ish yet decent all the same, kind of like a hard frosting:
