Ingredients
- For the cupcakes:
- 1/2 cup of coke
- 1/8 cup of cocoa powder
- 1 stick of butter
- 1/2 cup of butter milk
- 1 tbsp of pure vanilla
- 1 cup of flour
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1/2 tsp of baking soda
- 1/4 tsp of salt
- 1 egg
- For the filling:
- 1/4 cup of heavy cream
- 1 cup of dark chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp of coke
- For the Frosting:
- 4 oz of cream cheese softened
- 1 stick of butter
- 4 cups of powdered sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla
- 1 tbsp of food coloring (I used neon blue and purple)
- 1/8 cup of milk to desired consistency
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350
- In a sauce pan bring coke, butter, buttermilk and cocoa powder to a boil.
- Whisk thoroughly.
- In a large mixing bowl add the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- Pour sauce pan mixture into the bowl.
- Add the egg and vanilla.
- Mix until just combined
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until tops set without a jiggle.
- For the filling:
- Heat the cream in a sauce pan or microwave.
- Add the chocolate and coke.
- Stir until glossy.
- For the Frosting:
- Whip all ingredients, adding the sugar and milk in turns to get desired consistency.
- I like it to be creamy but thick enough to stand on its own.
- After letting the cupcakes cool. Use a melon baller or spoon to scoop out the middles.
- Pour in the ganache.
- Top with the frosting.
- Decorate!
- I got my witch legs at Michaels craft store!
