For a holiday party at work I was going to make these peppermint
frosted cupcakes from cooking light. The reviews say that the frosting
is wonderful, but the cupcake's suck. I was looking for some low fat
cupcake recipe that people have actually made. I want to make these
tomorrow night. Please include nutritional info too.

Thanks!

These are not cupcakes. They are very good, though, very rich and
chocolately. Nobody will mind that you didn't bring cupcakes. You can
make them without the coffee powder, or use decaf. When I make them I
bake them without the powdered sugar, and just dust a little on top
afterward. That's even less calories.

Mocha Crinkles
Makes about 6 dozen cookies

These decadent chocolate-coffee flavored cookies will remind you of rich
fudgy brownies, but with only a small portion of the fat and calories!

Ingredients
1-1/3 cups packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons instant espresso or coffee granules
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup powdered sugar

1. Beat brown sugar and oil in large bowl with electric mixer at medium
speed until well blended. Add sour cream, egg and vanilla; beat until
well blended.
2. Combine flour, cocoa, espresso, baking soda, salt and pepper in
medium bowl. Add flour mixture to brown sugar mixture; beat until well
blended. Cover dough; refrigerate 3 to 4 hours or until firm.
3. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place powdered sugar in shallow bowl. Shape
dough into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in powdered sugar; place 2 inches
apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
4. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until tops of cookies are firm to touch. (Do
not overbake.) Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
