Black Cat Cupcakes
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined. Stir in the black food coloring.
-
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, frost them with buttercream frosting. Use the black decorating gel to draw a cat face on each cupcake, and place a pair of candy eyes on top.
-
Let the cupcakes rest for 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
