I want to bake chocolate and coffee cupcakes. Can I just take a choc box mix and sub instant coffee for water?
smilesvssmirks asked:
I don’t want a really strong coffee flavor. On the box mix for the chocolate cake it calls for 1 and 1/3 cup water. Couldn’t I just dissolve a bit of instant coffee/espresso powder into the water to give the cupcakes a hint of the coffee flavor and kick? Or would that mess with the chemicals and the way the wet and dry ingredients react together?

How to make good quality coffee?
rockability asked:
Whenever I make coffee it comes out to be either bitter tasting, or tasteless or too strong. Even if I buy starbucks coffees they won’t come out the same at home.
