Fall Chocolate Mocha Cupcakes. These chocolate mocha cupcakes are chocolate lover's dream. Dry ingredients: I used organic all purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, table salt, and instant espresso powder in these cupcakes. These mocha cupcakes are coffee and espresso-infused, with a subtle chocolate flavor, and topped with an espresso-spiked buttercream frosting.
If you like coffee and chocolate, then you'll love these Mocha Cupcakes!
Moist, deeply chocolate-y cupcakes are topped with a silky Swiss buttercream that's spiked with rich espresso.

I decorated these Mocha Cupcakes in two different ways. So these Mocha Cupcakes came to life because I made coffee macarons. I think it's such a waste to make macarons and not use them to decorate other desserts, such as cakes, cupcakes. Topped with a fluffy frosting and chocolate sprinkles, these extra-rich, extra-delicious cupcakes smell wonderful while baking and taste even better! —Mary Bilyeu, Ann Arbor, Michigan.
