    Nob Hill - Something Extra

    Recipe Introduction


    Prep time: 10 minutes
    Cook time: 15 minutes

    List of Ingredients




    1/4 cup butter, at room temperature
    3/4 cup sugar
    2 eggs
    2 tsp. almond extract
    1/3 cup buttermilk
    1 cup flour
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1/3 cup heavy cream
    1/3 cup chocolate chips
    1/2 cup coconut

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350°F and line 9 muffin tins with paper liners.

    Beat butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer until light and creamy. Add eggs, extract and buttermilk; beat on medium-high speed for two minutes. Add flour, baking soda and salt; beat for an additional minute. Spoon into prepared tins and bake for 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out completely clean.

    While cupcakes are cooking, make frosting by combining heavy cream and chocolate chips in a small saucepan. Warm over very low heat, stirring constantly, just until chocolate is melted. Set aside to cool to frosting consistency.

    Let cupcakes cool completely before spreading with chocolate frosting and sprinkling with coconut.

    Makes 9 cupcakes.
