Directions
  1. Ho Ho cupcakes
  2. Preheat oven to 350F. Place silicon cupcake liners in 18 muffin cups (they got 24, I only got 18)
  3. Combine the dry ingredients, sift three times, and set aside.
  4. Combine the buttermilk, coffee, and vanilla and set aside
  5. Beat the butter and sugar until fluffy and creamed. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each.
  6. Add the flour and milk mixtures in alternating batches, beginning and ending with the flour.
  7. Spoon into muffin cups and bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  8. Cool completely. If using the silicon cool for five minutes and then remove from silicon cups.
