Serves/Makes: 24 | Ready In: 1-2 hrs
Ingredients:
1 package (15-18 ounce size) chocolate cake mix, plus ingredients called for on the package
1/4 cup instant coffee granules, divided
2 teaspoons hot water
1 container (16 ounce size) ready-to-spread cream cheese frosting
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with paper baking cups.
Prepare the cake mix as directed on the package for cupcakes (adding water, oil, and eggs) and add half of the instant coffee granules to the batter. Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes.
Divide the batter between the baking cups. Bake as directed on the package.
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes in the pan then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
When the cupcakes are cool, combine the remaining instant coffee granules and hot water in medium bowl. Mix until dissolved.
Stir the cream cheese frosting into the coffee mixture and mix until uniform in color.
Spread the frosting on the cooled cupcakes.
Combine the chocolate chips and oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Place in the microwave and heat on HIGH power for 1 minute, stirring halfway through the cooking time. If the chocolate is not melted, add 15 second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the frosting. Let the cupcakes stand until the chocolate drizzle is firm.
Store the cupcakes in an airtight container.
