Description

Chocolate, coffee, cool whip and cream cheese are the basis for these cupcakes. Yumminess!

Ingredients

  • 1 box Chocolate Cake Mix
  • 1 container Cool Whip , Thawed
  • 1 box Vanilla Instant Pudding
  • 1 Tablespoon Strong Coffee
  • 2 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder
  • 1 block Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 1 bar Butter, Softened
  • 1 bag Large Powdered Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
  • 1 bar Large Chocolate Bar Melted

Preparation

Make the cupcakes with chocolate cake mix as directed on the box. When done, remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

While cupcakes are baking mix up the filling:
Combine and mix Cool Whip, Pudding mix, Strong Coffee and Cocoa Powder. Put filling in the fridge to thicken.

Next, mix up the Chocolate Butter Cream Frosting:
Combine Cream Cheese, Butter, Powdered Sugar, Vanilla and melted chocolate candy bar. Mix till all blended and place in fridge.

On cooled cupcakes, take the end of a wooden spoon and make a hole in the middle of each cupcake.

Place filling mixture in pastry bag (*) or ziplock bag w/ corner snipped off. Squirt this into the hole in each cupcake.

Finally, frost with Chocolate Butter Cream Frosting.

* I used a pastry bag with a Wiltons 1m tip.

Made these for my daughters 5th b-day along with the snickerdoodle cupcakes w/ cinnamon buttercream. They were pretty good. The only thing I would change is the icing. It wasn’t bad but I’ve made better and will switch it next time.
