AIR-FRYER MOCHA CUPCAKES

Air-Fryer Mocha Cupcakes image

These luscious air-fryer cupcakes smell wonderful while they cook. If you have the drawer-type air fryer, you'll need to use individual silicone cupcake liners. If you have a bigger air fryer, a 6-cup muffin tin should fit in nicely. -Mary Bilyeu, Ann Arbor, Michigan

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup cold brewed coffee
1/2 cup canola oil
2 large eggs, room temperature
3 teaspoons cider vinegar
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup baking cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
MOCHA FROSTING:
3 tablespoons milk chocolate chips
3 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup butter, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons brewed coffee
1/2 cup chocolate sprinkles

Steps:

Preheat air fryer to 325°. In a large bowl, beat sugar, coffee, oil, eggs, vinegar and vanilla until well blended. In a small bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into coffee mixture until blended. , For muffin tins that fit in air fryer, fill paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. Otherwise, use silicone muffin cups. Place muffin cups in a single layer in air fryer. Cook until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 11-13 minutes. Cool completely before removing from muffin cup. , For frosting, in a microwave, melt chips and butter; stir until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl.
