- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 3 tsps apple cider vinegar
- 3 tsps pure vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup special dark baking cocoa

Blend the sugar, coffee, oil, eggs, vinegar and vanilla until well mixed
Sift the flour, baking cocoa, baking soda and salt together in a small bowl
Add the flour mixture to the coffee mixture and stir until combined
Grease 12 muffin cups and fill each one 2/3rds of the way with batter
Bake at 350 degrees F for about 22 minutes
For the Frosting
- 1/2 cup butter
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 5 tbsps fresh squeezed orange juice

Add all frosting ingredients to the mixer and beat on high speed until smooth and fluffy!

You can also embellish your cupcakes with printed Starbucks labels and straws if you want to get a little fancy :)
