Barefoot Contessa - Chocolate Cupcakes with Espresso Frosting

What can I say...

My affair with Barefoot continues!

I can't even begin to tell you how yummy these turned out!

Made these for a party in my honor (celebrating the longest graduation in history!).

And since it was my party, I made what I wanted!

Everyone loved these, esp. hubby and BFF, both who love their coffee!

The Sour Cream & Buttermilk really give it a kick of moistness!

Yeah... I'd eat that just as it is...

Mixed this up and added it!

So, I went a lil crazy with the frosting...
Not only did I add coffee, but I also added Espresso powder.

Perfect! They're yum even without frosting!

Oh yeah... the frosting did call for Peanut Butter but I thought coffee and espresso would be better... ;-)

Happy Graduation to Me!!!

P.S. - I've been trying so many Barefoot Contessa recipes, I need a whole new/different blog for that!

Tonight, it was Tuscan Lemon Chicken and Roasted Tomatoes...

Both from Back to Basics and both deliciously fabulous!
