Mocha Cupcakes

Mocha cupcakes- cupcakes with a light mocha sponge and chocolate icing on top. Perfect for afternoon tea or parties. It's that time of year again at work (parents' evening) where I try to do my bit and provide cake for all the teachers doing a 12-13 hour day. It's amazing how much a little bit of cake can cheer you up when you're exhausted and feel like you've talked the hind leg off a donkey! So far, over the years, I have made blueberry doughnut muffins, lime and coconut cupcakes , chocolate brownie cupcakes and lemon drizzle cupcakes . I spent a while pondering what flavours to do this time and finally settled on Mocha cupcakes. I'm a bit of a funny fish with coffee things. I don't really like coffee as a drink.

I've been AWOL for the last 2 weeks, as it's been half-term and before that work was VERY busy! I have barely done any cooking or baking during this time because we have been out and about and staying with family. The only exception was making a fruit crumble with my niece, who became fixated with the idea of blackberry crumble after seeing it in a children's tv programme. A bit awkward when blackberries are going oput of season, but the freezer section saved the day! Once we got back, I had itchy fingers to make something, anything food-related! My husband requested pumpkin pie- very seasonal with Halloween around the corner and Thanksgiving on the way. Luckily, I had some tins of pumpkin puree handy as my mum had brought some back from America thanks to our family friends from Texas. I am a big fan of pumpkin pie myself. The first time I ate it was in Norway, where we were living at the time, were at a Thanksgiving party throw by some American neighbours. I vividly reme...
