Ingredients
Scale
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp espresso powder dissolved in 2 tbsp hot water
8 oz mascarpone cheese, softened
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream, cold
8 to 12 ladyfingers, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/3 cup strong coffee or espresso, cooled
2 to 3 tbsp coffee liqueur (optional)
Cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with papers. This makes a tidy, Pinterest-worthy presentation.
In a medium bowl, whisk the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes. The mixture should look pale and feel airy to the touch.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla. Scrape the sides of the bowl to keep everything evenly mixed.
Alternate adding the dry ingredients and the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined; overmixing makes the cupcakes dense.
Stir the cooled espresso mixture into the batter until you have a smooth, glossy batter with a faint coffee scent.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cups, about 2/3 full. Bake 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a rack before filling.
Meanwhile, whip the cold heavy cream to soft peaks. In a separate bowl, beat mascarpone with powdered sugar until smooth; fold in the whipped cream until fully combined and silky.
To assemble: use a small knife to core a shallow opening in each cooled cupcake or cut a small cone out of the top. Place a few pieces of espresso-soaked ladyfinger into the hole, then spoon in a teaspoon or two of mascarpone filling. Push the top back on to seal gently and smooth the surface.
Refrigerate the cupcakes for at least 1–2 hours to let the flavors meld and the filling set. Just before serving, dust with cocoa powder and, if desired, chocolate shavings.
Notes
A coffee-kissed tiramisu-inspired cupcake with soft vanilla cake, a silky mascarpone center, espresso-soaked ladyfingers, and a cocoa-dusted crown for a dessert that tastes like a café treat in a grab-and-go bite.
