How to make it?
Preheat the oven to 180 celsius. Meanwhile, line your cupcake tray with cupcake liners.
Take a glass bowl and whisk all-purpose flour and cocoa, coffee powder, baking soda, and baking powder.
Take another bowl and beat the sugar, oil, and eggs together. But remember to add one egg at a time and mix nicely until it is incorporated with other ingredients. Next, add the vanilla essence and mix nicely again.
Mix the dry and wet ingredients and beat until it becomes a smooth batter with no air bubbles. Pour this batter into every cupcake mold and bake until cooked well.
Now it is time to make the frosting. For this, just beat the three ingredients (mentioned above). However, make sure to sift icing sugar and cocoa before adding.
Beat it with a whisk until the peaks are stiff. Generously add it to the top layer of the cupcakes, and enjoy!
