Sinful Bliss Cupcakes with Sweetened Whipped Cream Frosting



Ingredients:

Cupcakes:

  • 2 1/2 cups granulated sugar 625 mL
  • 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour 560 mL
  • 1 cup cocoa powder 250 mL
  • 1 tsp baking soda 5 mL
  • 1 tsp baking powder 5 mL
  • 1/4 tsp salt 1 mL
  • 1 cup canola oil 250 mL
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups hot water 560 mL

Sweetened Whip Cream Frosting:

  • 3 cups heavy cream (ice cold) 750 mL
  • 3 Tbsp powdered sugar 45mL
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 7 mL

Scoop whipped cream into pastry bag with star tip and pipe whipped cream on top of cooled cupcakes. Dust lightly with cocoa powder. Serve right away or refrigerate until serving.
