I want to bake chocolate and coffee cupcakes. Can I just take a choc box mix and sub instant coffee for water?
I don’t want a really strong coffee flavor. On the box mix for the chocolate cake it calls for 1 and 1/3 cup water. Couldn’t I just dissolve a bit of instant coffee/espresso powder into the water to give the cupcakes a hint of the coffee flavor and kick? Or would that mess with the [...]
