Whatever dessert you end up having for Passover, please avoid those macaroons in the can. At the Passover Seder, we traditionally ask 4 questions. I propose adding a 5th question: Why on all other nights do we eat baked goods that come in bags, boxes, or direct from the oven and on this night we eat baked goods from a can?
Even moving past canned macaroons, I'm not typically a big fan of Passover desserts. These kosher for Passover chocolate cupcakes with chocolate cream cheese frosting, however, are so tasty that I could eat them year round. One of my friends even told me it was the best cupcake she had ever had!
They are extremely rich - almost like fudge - so if you have mini cupcake wrappers, you might consider using those instead of normal-sized ones. You could also make the cupcake recipe in cake format.
The recipe can be found on Cupcake Project.

Why do we eat them on passover? Because they aren't easy to find the rest of the year. I happen to love the chocolate ones, they were a big treat when I was a kid.

I *never* buy the store bought cookies/macaroons for Passover...UGGGHHH!!!! I learned ages ago that if you want food to tast good, you have to do it yourself. I found a recipe for Tishpishti, which is a Middle eastern Syrup drenched Nut cake. Its Kosher for Passover and Damn good. Sometimes good KLP recipes need to be found, but they are treasures when you find them.
