A Celebration of Mom's and Teachers: with Chocolate!

These were made for Mother's Day and again for Teacher Appreciation and were a hit!
It is a chocolate cake with chocolate-chip cheesecake.  It is then topped with a chocolate buttercream frosting.
The cupcake is moist and the cheesecake is creamy, just like you expect each separate dessert to be.  The  buttercream frosting on top adds a decadent touch.  Top with a fruit as well to add some tart sweetness.  These were topped with strawberries, but raspberries work nicely as well.
For added fun, dark chocolate mint cake balls and chocolate-peanut butter cake balls were also an option at this Mother's Day celebration.  Did you celebrate Mother's Day or Teacher Appreciation with a dessert?  What kind?
