Dark Chocolate Walnut Cupcakes

Dark chocolate cupcakes with dark chocolate ganache, topped with a roasted walnut and glazed with salted caramel sauce, what's not to like? Dark chocolate and walnuts were top two in last month's poll, in which the theme was "Nuts and Chocolate". These look like the "chocolate" cupcakes, but this time they are real chocolate cupcakes.

Caramel Apple Cupcakes

I have never eaten a caramel apple my whole life, so unfortunately I don't know what a caramel apple taste like. But I have eaten caramel and apples separately, so maybe I can imagine combining them together. Maybe they taste like these cupcakes? They have caramel, apple, and nuts, that is what a caramel apple has, right?
