Ingredients
Scale
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1/4 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Step 4: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the brewed coffee. Mix until just combined and smooth.

Notes
For best results, store your chocolate tiramisu cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate them for up to a week to keep them fresh.
If you want to enjoy them warm, reheat the cupcakes gently in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds; just be careful not to overdo it, as they can become dry.
Consider serving your cupcakes with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cocoa powder on top for an elegant touch that enhances their tiramisu flavor.
For an extra indulgent twist, try adding a splash of coffee fruit juice to the batter or frosting to deepen the flavor profile and give your cupcakes a delightful kick.
