Chocolate & Coffee Cupcakes with Coffee Frosting
Inspiration: Once again, my husband’s coworkers requested cupcakes for their birthday, so I obliged! Scouring the internet, I eventually landed on this coffee based recipe I found on the King Arthur website. (They used to publish a magazine that I really, really wish they’d bring back because it was brilliant. No, this isn’t an advert; I just like their flour.)
In any case, it turned out beautifully.
Christie: If baked as a cake and properly frosted (with someone more adept with a piping bag than I), I can see this as a great reviver at the end of a weekly dinner party, say held every Tuesday, due to the amount of coffee/espresso one is asked to add to the confection!
