Quest!
For this particular recipe, you do need to use these particular mixes. They normally make a small pan of brownies and a single layer cake.










In a mixer, beat eggs until light yellow.

In a measuring cup, measure out your hot water from the tap. Then add instant espresso powder. Mix and let it sit for a little bit.










Add softened butter, vanilla and baking powder to eggs. Mix until combined.











Add mixes to the bowl and stir on low. Add in espresso mix and continue to mix for 2 minutes on medium. Should be like a cake mix when done. Let this sit for at least 5 minutes for the flour to fully absorb the liquid.

Preheat the oven to 350 degree F. Get your cupcake liners ready in the pan and make sure to spray the liners with non stick spray. Spoon the cake mixture in so they come up about 3/4 of the way full. Should make 24 cupcakes.








Bake for 18-23 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the cupcakes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.

Once completely cooled decorate with your favorite frosting. Today with have a light pink vanilla frosting.










Add red and pink hearts to indicate how much life the hero still has. Add some extra sprinkles for fun and Enjoy!
