Irish Cream Chocolate Cupcakes

For the cupcakes:

Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a cupcake tray with paper liners.

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk in the flour mixture until very well-combined.

Pour into the lined cupcake tray, filling each cup about 2/3 of the way. Bake at 350ºF for 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean.

Let cool completely before frosting.

For the frosting:

In the bowl of your mixer, beat the butter for 1 minute, until light. Beat in the coffee cream for another minute.

Add in the powdered sugar. Beat on low speed for 1 minute.

On high speed, beat the frosting for 8 minutes, until light and fluffy.

Frost the cupcakes, and enjoy!
