Easter Cupcake Idea With Chocolate Nests

Cute springtime cupcake idea that makes for an adorable Easter time!

Ingredients:

For Chocolate Cupcakes:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ⅓ cup Cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg, at room temperature
  • ½ cup buttermilk, at room temperature
  • ½ cup hot water or hot coffee
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract (optional)

For frosting

  • 3 sticks unsalted butter, softened and cut into cubes
  • 3 cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted
  • 2-3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon coconut extract (optional)
    pinch of salt
  • 2-3 drops green gel paste (or food coloring)

Preparation

For the Cupcakes:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin tins with cupcake liners.
  • Sift together all the dry ingredients in the bowl of an electric mixer.
  • In a medium bowl, combine all the wet ingredients using a whisk.
  • Mix the dry ingredients on low speed for 1 minute. Stop the mixer and add the wet ingredients. Mix for 2 minutes on medium speed and scrape the sides and bottom of bowl. Mix for additional minute on medium speed.
  • The batter will be thin. Divide evenly among the cupcake liners.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean.
    Cool cupcakes on wire racks completely. Meanwhile you could start on the frosting.

For frosting:

  • Whip butter for 8 minutes on medium speed using the paddle attachment of an electric mixer. The butter will become pale and creamy. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix on low-speed for 1minute. Then increase speed to medium and mix for 6 minutes until the frosting is very light, creamy and fluffy. Add in food coloring and whip for an additional minute.
  • Frost the cupcakes and top with Easter eggs.
