Dr. Pepper Cupcakes

A friend gave me this recipe. So simple 2 ingredients!

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 12

Ingredients

• 1 (15 ounce) box  fudge cake mix
• 2  cups  Dr. Pepper cola, plus 1/3 cup for frosting
• 1⁄2 cup butter
• 6  tablespoons  unsweetened cocoa
• 2  cups powdered sugar

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350°F Pour the entire box of cake mix into a bowl and combine with 2 cups of Dr. Pepper “til it’s thicker than pancake batter but runnier than brownie batter.”.
2. Pour batter into the cupcake tin, and place in oven. Bake for about 15-17 minutes, checking with a toothpick inserted into the center that comes out clean. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before removing it from the tin. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
3. While the cupcakes are baking, combine butter, cocoa and Dr. Pepper together, using a mixer. Add in powdered sugar and continue to mix until the frosting is smooth and holds soft peaks. Once the cupcakes are cooled, frost them.
