How many you like these cute mini cupcakes? I think all of us love it. These cupcakes needs no icing / frosting and other decorations compared to regular large sized cakes, it tastes yummy as such. I have added a little instant coffee powder to this Eggless Chocolate cupcakes recipe, which enhances the chocolate flavour and lends deep brown colour the baked goodie. I love these cup cakes always, as it gets baked in less time and it is the most preferred one for any kids parties and best for individual servings.
