cup buttermilk, room temperature

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Cupcakes

1 Preheat your oven to 350F 175C. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.

2 Place half of the Kit Kat bars in a resealable bag and use a rolling pin to crush them.

3 In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

4 In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and hot coffee. Add the egg and whisk until combined.

5 Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients while mixing on low speed using a stand or hand mixer. Continue mixing for 2 minutes on medium speed, scraping down the sides as needed.

6 Fold in the crushed Kit Kat pieces.

7 Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling them about 2/3 full.

8 Bake for 13 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 2: Make the Frosting

1 In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.

2 Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream, mixing on low speed until combined.

3 Fold in the crushed Kit Kats and increase the speed to medium-high, whipping the frosting for 3-4 minutes until fluffy.

4 Transfer the frosting to a piping bag and pipe onto the cooled cupcakes.

Step 3: Decorate

1 Drizzle fudge sauce on top of the frosted cupcakes optional.

2 Garnish with Kit Kat quarters for an extra crunch.
