S, I used the Magnolia Bakery's vanilla recipe and added three tablespoons of instant espresso powder. You can see the recipe here:

Best cupcake recipe ever!

Suds, thank you!

And Saara, that might be a low-calorie solution to chocolate cravings! :)

I made the Magnolia Bakery cupcakes per your recommendation and it was pure bliss! 8)

Funny, I had been thinking about trying to make Kahlua cupcakes tomorrow...and your photo is definitely pushing me in that direction!
