Chocolate Coffee Tequila Cupcakes Recipes

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
• Whisk together the cake flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk together the buttermilk, coffee, oil, eggs and vanilla in a separate bowl.
• Pour half of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and beat on low speed just until combined. Scrape down the bowl then add the remaining wet ingredients and beat to combine. Scrape down the bowl and paddle. Increase the speed to medium and beat for a full minute.
• Fill the prepared cupcake tins 2/3 of the way full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of each comes out clean and the top springs back when lightly pressed, 15 to 18 minutes.
• For the frosting: Melt the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over simmering water in a medium saucepan. Remove from the simmering water and let it cool until room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low, drizzle in the melted chocolate and beat until completely blended. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder and vanilla. Increase the speed to high and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cupcake pan with paper liners.
• Whisk together flour, white sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Set aside.
• In another bowl, mix buttermilk, tequila, liquefied coconut oil, lime juice, brown sugar, coffee, eggs, and vanilla. Mix well to combine.
• Pour wet ingredients into dry, and blend using an electric mixer until incorporated. Pour batter into cupcake liners until 2/3 full. Bake 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out of the cupcake cleanly. Because of all the liquid in the batter, this will take longer than normal.
• Remove cupcakes from cupcake tins and allow to cool on a rack for at least 10 minutes.
• When cupcakes are cooled completely, blend remaining coconut oil until it becomes very white and creamy. Add 1 cup of confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of milk and beat until smooth. Add all remaining ingredients except for coconut flakes and blend on low speed until desired consistency is reached.
• Once cupcakes are completely cooled, top with frosting. Sprinkle coconut flakes on the top of each cupcake so it sticks to the frosting.
• Store cupcakes in refrigerator (coconut oil tends to liquefy at room temperature, which will make the frosting run).
