Chocolate Cupcakes
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Place cupcake liners in a cupcake pan.
- In a large bowl combine buttermilk, sugar,eggs vegetable oil,coffee, eggs and vanilla. Whisk until well combined
- In a separate bowl, sift all your dry ingredients.
- Add your dry ingredients to your wet ingredients in two additions until combined well. But do not over mix.
- Fill cupcakes 2/3 of the way full.
- Bake for 17-20 mins or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Allow cupcakes to cool completely.
Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting
- Melt the chocolates in the microwave one minute at a time. I melt mine for one minute and mix it together until completely melted.
- In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment beat your butter and cream cheese for 5 minutes in med-high speed until smooth.
- On a separate Bowl Sift together your powdered sugar and your cocoa powder.
- Add your powdered sugar and cocoa powder one cup at a time adding your milk one table spoon at a time together with every cup of powdered sugar.
- Once you have added all your powdered sugar and cocoa add your cooled melted chocolate and vanilla.
- Beat on med speed for 3-5 mins until smooth.
- Frost cooled cupcakes to your liking. I used a 1M piping tip. These go amazing with fresh berries or top with sprinkles or cookie crumbs.
