This is the frosting I used for the Mocha Cupcakes! It has a very sweet taste, and goes well with the cupcakes.
Step 1: Ingredients
1/2 cup room temperature butter
1 tbsp instant coffee powder
2 tbsp room temperature milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 - 3 cups confectioners' sugar
***note- I used regular coffee powder because instant coffee powder was not available to me at the time, but I HIGHLY recommend using instant.***
