Directions

• Directions for Cupcakes:
• Preheat oven to 350 F. Line cupcake pan with paper liners.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside.
• In a different bowl, cream butter and sugar for 2 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Add in the vanilla and egg until well blended.
• Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix until combined.
• Add in milk and mix again.
• Evenly distribute the batter into the cupcake liners.
• Bake at 350 F for 21-24 minutes, or until the top springs back when pressed down. Remove to wire racks to cool before frosting.
• Frosting Directions:
• In a mixing bowl with a stand mixer, combine all ingredients and mix together.
• If frosting looks like pebbles (too dry), add another tablespoon of heavy whipping cream.
• If frosting is to thin, add in ½ cup powdered sugar.
• Once frosting is at a thick consistency, pipe onto cooled cupcakes and drizzle with caramel sauce, then top with a Twix.
