Are you a coffee fan? Do you like cupcakes? Well then this recipe is the perfect combination for you. I’m not a huge coffee fan but these cupcakes just had to be tried.

My mum loves a nice coffee cake but would not eat a whole one so these cupcakes are perfect for her.

The chocolate buttercream on the top is a perfect combination for the coffee cakes. I have to admit I feel a little in love with these cupcakes as the icing is perfect.

The cupcakes are light and fluffy with the perfect amount of coffee taste to them.

Now my buttercream does look a little bit different and that is  because I used some coloured buttercream I had leftover from a previous bakes so I just added some cocoa powder and black food colouring to it to try and make it darker.
