Chocolate Malt Cupcakes
The Story: Alright, everyone is wanting some Valentines recipes. I didn’t want to just dye some vanilla cake pink and make it all girly looking or make red velvet (because I am allergic to red dye), so here is my take on a “cute” cupcake. Chocolate Malt Cupcakes, pretty freaking cute. And with a straw! Who can resist that?
Chocolate Malt Cupcakes
Ingredients
Cake:
1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix
3 eggs
1/2 cup oil
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup malted milk powder
Chocolate Malt Buttercream:
1/2 cup butter, softened
8 oz cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup cocoa powder
2-3 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup malted milk powder
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line pans with 24 cupcake liners.
2. Sift cake mix in to a small bowl and set aside.
3. Combine eggs, oil, buttermilk, sour cream and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. add malted milk powder to cake mix and stir.
5. Combine dry and wet ingredients and mix.
6. Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full and bake for 16-22 minutes, or until a knife comes out clean.
7. Buttercream: Beat butter and cream cheese for 4 minutes and scrape down the bowl as needed. Add cocoa powder, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and malted mix powder. Beat until smooth. If too thick, add a tablespoon of milk. If too thin, add more powdered sugar.
8. Pipe onto cooled cupcakes and decorate with chocolate malt balls and colorful straws.

Thank you so much Lizzy you are the best cupcake maker I know. I love everything you share with us, and you know I don't like Chocolate.
If you are having family over this week-end you have to try these you will love these. My husband and son both said you will.
Sincerely
