Ingredients

For the Cupcakes:

    • 1 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

    • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

    • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

    • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

    • 2 large eggs

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    • 1/2 cup sour cream

    • 1/4 cup espresso or strong brewed coffee, cooled

For the Coffee Soak:

    • 1/2 cup espresso or strong brewed coffee

    • 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional)

For the Mascarpone Frosting:

    • 1 cup mascarpone cheese

    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Garnish:

    • Cocoa powder

    • Chocolate curls or grated chocolate

Instructions

    1. Prepare the Cupcakes:
      Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, cream the sugar and butter together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in the vanilla, sour cream, and espresso. Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.

    1. Bake:
      Spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each about 3/4 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cupcakes cool completely.

    1. Make the Coffee Soak:
      In a small bowl, combine the espresso and coffee liqueur. Once the cupcakes have cooled, pierce the tops of each cupcake several times with a fork and brush them generously with the coffee soak.

    1. Prepare the Frosting:
      In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until fully combined.

    1. Decorate and Serve:
      Pipe or spread the mascarpone frosting onto each cupcake. Dust with cocoa powder and garnish with chocolate curls or grated chocolate for the finishing touch.
