Coffee Cupcakes With Caramel Filling

"These Coffee Cupcakes with Caramel Filling are the bomb. A wonderful coffee flavor from both the cupcake and the frosting, plus an ooey gooey center of caramel to complete this magical treat. The cupcake ingredients are pretty straightforward; there are extra egg whites to keep them light and fluffy. We kept it easy for the filling; I used a store-bought dulce de leche caramel filling. For the icing, we changed it up from a coffee buttercream which can be very rich, and we already have the caramel filling, to a light whipped cream frosting. The frosting is also flavored with coffee giving this dessert a real homage to the coffee lover."
