I always wanted the coffee flavour to be strong in the cupcakes.  One of the bloggers suggested not to  add brown sugar as it could take over the flavour of coffee in  the cupcakes. Decided to take her advice. Another blogger advised  to add more of instant coffee.

The result is moist, delicious and the coffee flavour..!!

Enjoy baking.
