Instructions
Cupcakes
- Preheat the oven to 325°. Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, coffee, eggs, and vanilla until combined.
- In a medium bowl sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and whisk together until fully combined.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared cupcake pan until each liner is filled 2/3 of the way full. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the cupcakes spring back when lightly pressed in the center. Cool completely before frosting.
Buttercream
- In the bowl of a mixer, add the butter and beat with the paddle attachment until smooth and pale. Add the powdered sugar and mix on low until the powdered sugar is starting to make a thick frosting with the butter.
- Speed the mixer up and beat the buttercream until all the powdered has been absorbed into the butter. Add the vanilla and 2 tablespoons of milk. Beat until smooth, adding more milk as needed to get the buttercream to a smooth, pipeable frosting. Add the yellow food coloring and mix until you have a nice, even yellow buttercream.
Assembly
- Use a large round piping tip to pipe a large, even dollop of frosting on top of each cupcake.
- Pour the red sprinkles into a shallow dish and press the bottom edge of the frosting into the sprinkles until the circumference of the cupcake.
- Press one unwrapped truffle into the center of the cupcake. Use a lighter to gently heat the truffle just enough to press two chocolate melting wafers into the sides of the truffles, so that it resembles a Mickey Mouse head. Repeat until all the cupcakes are frosted and topped with a truffle Mickey.
- Enjoy!
