INGREDIENTS: 1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3 large eggs
1-1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
2 cups low-protein flour, such as White Lily, or cake flour, lightly spooned and swept
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
1-1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup Hershey's Special Dark unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup Hershey's unsweetened natural cocoa powder
1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
1/3 cup hot water
2 tsp. instant coffee granules
Heat oven to 350F. Line 24 muffin wells with paper cups. In large mixing bowl, beat butter with sugars at medium speed till creamy and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, till yellow disappears. Beat in vanilla. In medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoas and salt. Add to butter mixture alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour. In small cup, combine instant coffee and hot water; stir into cake batter. Divided batter evenly into cupcake liners. Bake 16-20 minutes, or till a toothpick inserted in center returns with just a few crumbs. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then transfer cupcakes to a wire rack to finish coooling. Frost as desired. Yield: 24 cupcakes
NOTE: I made a 3-cup bundt cake, baked for 23 minutes; 12 standard cupcakes, baked for 18 minutes; and 12 mini cupcakes, baked for 15 minutes.
