Came up with a good Mocha Buttercream recipe

Although I used this for the cupcakes I will definitely use it for cakes too. And 'thanks' for the feedback in my earlier post!

Blend in a small bowl:

1 T. espresso powder

1 T. cocoa

1 T. cold water

Blend:

2 sticks unsalted butter, softened

3 cups powdered sugar

1/2 tsp. vanilla

When the butter mixture is light and fluffy, add the espresso powder mixture. If needed, thin frosting with a tad of milk or cream.

Unsweetened cocoa powder

Sorry Dawn, I should have been more clear:)

I wish I could send you a pic of the cupcakes - I put them in leopard print liners - they turned out cute! But I don't know how to link pictures with the site.
