It's the simplest things we die for! Chocolate coffee cupcakes.

The pleasure of creamy sweet milk chocolate and the hit of roasted coffee bitterness all in a single cupcake. Not heavy with any frosting, just a few shavings of chocolate.

This cupcake is a modest one. It's not  fancy or decorated but is exactly what you need when you want a cupcake which is comforting, flavourful and not too sweet.

The recipe is an all in method and is perfect served warm. You'll need:

4oz butter

4oz caster sugar

2 eggs

3oz self raising flour

1oz cocoa powder

1tbsp of very strong espresso  

The method is simply adding all the ingredients in a bowl and beating till incorporated and creamy. Spoon into cases and bake. When done, allow cupcakes to cool a little and add a few shavings of chocolate on top. 

Enjoy!
