I developed this recipe because most of the recipes out there are kind of bland. My husband is a chocolate lover and he loves this recipe so easy to make. You can do a cake as well with this one but it is perfect for cupcakes.

How to Make Best Ever Chocolate Cupcakes!

Step-by-Step

Preheat oven to 350 and prepare cupcake pan with liners. In a small bowl ad 2 tbs hot water with instant coffee let sit. Mean while in large bowl mix all wet ingredients and sugar together until well combined. Add in coffee mixture to the wet ingredients.
Sift in dry ingredients including pudding mix to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. pour into prepared cup cake pan fill 2/3 full. Makes 2 dozen cupcakes.
Cook in preheated oven for 30 minutes or until tooth pick comes out clean. Let them cool before frosting them. I like to refrigerate mine or let them sit on the counter covered until the next day so the flavor can develop even more.
