Triple Chocolate Coffee cupcakes with Mocha Creme Filling and Chocolate Buttercream Icing---honestly who needs the drive thru??
I wanted a cupcake that tasted like Mocha Chip Ice Cream, or better yet a Frappachino. I started with a Betty Crocker triple chocolate cake mix, substituted cold coffee for the water. I filled the cupcake papers with 1/4 cup batter each. Once they had cooled, I took out the centers with of all things my microplane nutmeg grater . Filled them with buttercream filling that had been laced with instant coffee powder. I made a deep chocolate buttercream, piped that on with a large star tip, grated white chocolate and coffee beans over the top and added a chocolate dipped coffee bean.
Serious buzz off these---and they look amazing!
