Rolo Chocolate Cupcakes
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup hot water
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Rolo chocolate candies, unwrapped
- For frosting:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Additional Rolo candies for decoration
Instructions:
Warm up the oven to 350F 175C and put paper liners in a cupcake pan
Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl
Put away
Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in another bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy
One at a time, add the eggs and beat well after each one
Add the vanilla extract and mix well
Start by adding the dry ingredients, then the buttermilk, one after the other
Start with the dry ingredients and end with the buttermilk
Dont mix any further than that
It will be smooth after you add the hot water and mix it in
Watch out, its going to be thin
Use about two thirds of the batter to fill up each cupcake liner
In the middle of each cupcake, put a Rolo candy
Its done when a toothpick stuck in the middle of a cupcake comes out clean after 18 to 20 minutes of baking
After the cupcakes have cooled in the pan for a few minutes, move them to a wire rack to cool all the way down
For the frosting, beat the butter until it is smooth and creamy
Adding heavy cream and vanilla extract in between adding powdered sugar and cocoa powder will make the frosting smooth and fluffy
Spread or pipe the frosting on top of the cupcakes once they are cool, and then add an extra Rolo candy to each one to make them look nice
Serve your tasty Rolo chocolate cupcakes and enjoy them
