It’s time for another baking dish today and what better way to slowly kick off the weekend with these foodtabulous cappuccino vanilla cupcakes! I’ve played around with this recipe a couple of times and this is really one of my favorite versions of it.
Now although you can customize it however you wish, I’d say it’s worth your time to try out this recipe as is. The coffee adds loads of earthy flavor to the frosting and the basic vanilla cupcake recipe is incredibly easy! Have fun baking these cappuccino vanilla cupcakes guys!
