Ingredients

1 box White cake mix (plus ingredients to make it...eggs, oil, water)

2 Eggs

250 g marscapone cheese (or cream cheese)

3 heaped Tbsp powdered sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

2 heaped Tbsp espresso coffee (more if you like a stronger taste)

1 cup boiling water

2 Tbsp Amaretto liquor

2 Tbsp bakers sugar (extra fine)

1/2 cup cocoa powder

Directions

CUPCAKES: Prepare white cake mix according to box directions. Fill each cupcake paper cup 2/3 full with mix. (makes 24 standard cupcakes) Bake cupcakes according to box directions. Let cool completely.

When cupcakes are cool, cut a large circular hole into each cupcake and remove the cake plug to leave a 1/4 inch thick side wall and bottom remaining in the cupcake paper. This will make room for the filling. Crumble the cake pieces you have removed into a separate bowl and reserve for later use.

COFFEE MIXTURE: Add the espresso coffee grounds to the 1 cup boiling water and let stand for 10 minutes. Then strain the coffee grounds and retain the liquid. When the liquid has cooled, stir in the Amaretto liquor. Set aside.

FILLING: Separate the egg yolks from the egg whites. Mix the yolks, marscapone cheese, vanilla extract and powdered sugar together until smooth.

Place the egg whites in a separate mixing bowl. Beat the egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. While still beating, slowly add the fine sugar until well mixed.

Gently fold the marscapone mixture in small amounts into the egg whites until fully incorporated.

ASSEMBLY: Drizzle two or three Tbsp of the coffee liquor mixture onto each cupcake, particularly along the interior sides of the cupcake paper so the coffee saturations are visible in the cake through the papers.

Scoop a small amount of the tiramisu filling into the bottom of each cupcake and ligtly sprinkle with some cocoa powder.

Add a layer of cake crumbles on top of the tiramisu mixture until the hole is filled, pressing down a bit to keep the crumbles firmly in place and forming a flat top surface to the cupcake. Add a tsp. of coffee liquor mixture to the top of the crumbles.

Pipe a layer of tiramisu filling over the top of the crumbles until covered. You do not need to completely cover the whole cupcake top.

Dust the top of each cupcake with cocoa powder.

Place in a tightly covered storage container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
