Amazingly Light Angelfood Mocha Cupcakes

I had never tried International Delight Light Iced Coffee, and I wasn't sure what to expect. I loved the idea that it had less calories and less sugar, but would it be light and yet also sweet enough for me? Absolutely! In fact, I loved the taste so much that I thought it deserved a fantastic light dessert creation. I decided to make mocha angelfood cupcakes. Perfect for when you want a light dessert that is full of rich flavor.

Ingredients for Cupcakes:
One box angelfood cake mix
1/2 cup cocoa
1 1/3 cup decaf coffee, cooled

Ingredients for Fluffy Frosting:
1 1/2 cups International Delight Light Iced Coffee (I used mocha flavor)
1 3.5 ounce package of vanilla pudding
1 8 ounce carton of whipped topping

Directions:
Place the pudding in a bowl and add International Delight Light Iced Coffee. Mix on medium for 2 minutes. Place in the fridge and allow to firm for at least 2 hours.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350*. Place in mixing bowl angelfood cake mix, cocoa, and cooled coffee. Mix on medium until well blended. Pour into baking cups in muffin tins. Bake for 18-20 minutes and allow to cool.
Gently fold whipped topping into mocha coffee pudding. Frost cupcakes immediately before serving.

I will definitely be making these decadent yet light cupcakes again! Not only did my husband and I love them, but our 3 boys were impressed. And their favorite part? Why the frosting, of course!
