After eating a ton of turkey and baking my first apple pie from scratch, I thought I was done. Then my family starting talking about how good a coffee cupcake would be. So of course I had to bake some the wkend after.
Some yummy first try! So I have found that my oven cooks too hot. I have ajusted my temps and cooking times. 325 and for 12 mins. I got this book from Las Vegas and I tried their Coffee cupcake with coffee glaze. The texture in the cupcake was a little dry. I think it has to do with the recipe asking for cake flour and me not having any. I did found out that you can substiute to make 2 cups of cake flour.
This is the first time I tried making a glaze. Its basically powdered sugar and coffee for this recipe. Then you have to get it to the right constincy. Its going to be a bit watery but hardens with a nice shine to it. So I had some of the same coffee that I used in the recipe and it enhanced the flavor of the cupcake. I also tried hot chocolate with it and that was a really good combo. Definatly going to bake again! Until next time, happy baking!
