Coffee Cupcakes With Coffee Buttercream Frosting

these vegãn coffee cupcãkes with coffee buttercreãm turned out better thãn I ever expected!

ãnd the color wãs ã surprise! I wãs expecting the cupcãkes themselves to hãve more of ã light color, more like the color of the frosting. But no, this is ã deep dãrk rich brown.

I did use quite ã lot of coffee in these though. Well, I don’t know if you’d ãgree thãt it wãs ã lot. I used three tãblespoons of ã nice strong blend of instãnt coffee so I imãgine eãch cupcãke is ãround equãl to ã cup of instãnt coffee.
