Ingredients
- Cake: shopping list
- 2 Cups sugar shopping list
- 1 3/4 Cups flour (All Purpose) shopping list
- 3/4 Cup cocoa powder shopping list
- 2 teaspoons baking soda shopping list
- 1 teaspoon baking powder shopping list
- 1 teaspoon salt shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 1 Cup sour milk (1 Tablespoon White Vineger + Milk to equal 1 C.) shopping list
- 1 Cup hot coffee shopping list
- 1/2 Cup vegetable oil shopping list
- 1 teaspoon vanilla shopping list
- Icing: shopping list
- 1 Cup vegetable shortening shopping list
- 1 Cup butter (2 Sticks) room temperature shopping list
- 2 teaspoons vanilla shopping list
- 8 Cups Confectioners sugar shopping list
- 4 Tablespoons milk shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 muffin pans with cupcake papers.
- Cake:
- In a mixing bowl sift to combine the sugar through the salt.
- I use my stand mixer, but you may use a hand mixer as well.
- Add the eggs through the vanilla to the flour mixture and beat for 2 minutes on medium speed. Make sure you scrape the bowl once within the first 30 seconds.
- The mixture will be very thin! Pour the mixture (or use a scoop) into a 2 cup measure and pour the batter into the muffin liners 2/3 full.
- Bake on the middle rack of your oven for 17 minutes or until the middle cupcake springs back when you touch it with your finger. Or you can stick a toothpick in the center, if it comes out clean you're all set!!!
- Remove the cupcakes after letting them rest for about 5 minutes, onto a cooling rack. During the cooling time, make your icing.
- Icing:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine all the ingredients. Start on low, covering the mixer with a towel at first will protect your kitchen from become a sugar bowl! (that is a kitchen tip that took a long time to figure out!!!) and increase the speed to medium or medium high. Add more milk if you feel like the mixture is too thick.
- Ice your cupcakes with a pastry bag or spatula and sprinkle with colored jimmies.
- Enjoy!!!
