Dolly’s Favorite Chocolate Cake Mix…err, CUPCAKES!

Remember the 3rd Dolly Parton Baking Kit in the mail a few weeks ago?

The box included chocolate cake mix, blueberry muffin mix and the cinnamon swirl crumb cake mix.  Plus a tub of chocolate buttercream, some recipe cards, a Dolly magnet and an oven mitt.

I decided to make the Chocolate cake mix but instead of a cake I did cupcakes.  They are very easy to make.  As I was mixing I did notice a coffee smell.  I could also taste coffee.  I looked it up and it does have an espresso flavoring.  I don’t drink or like coffee and this was something I noticed right away.  But the cupcakes were yummy.  I also added some candy toppings (mini M&M’s and mini Reese pb cups chopped up) to some of the tops of the cupcakes to make them a little different.
