Sugar-Topped Mocha Cupcakes

I first made these cupcakes, adapted from an eggless cake recipe, for a school carnival. It's the only dessert my picky daughter requests. Light, moist and tender, the cupcakes don't need frosting, thanks to the sparkly cinnamon-sugar topping.
Jennifer Kraft, Hastings, Nebraska

INGREDIENTS:

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups plus 1/3 cup sugar, divided
1/2 cup baking cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups cold brewed coffee
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon


DIRECTIONS:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, 1-1/2 cups sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Add the oil, vinegar and vanilla; beat on low speed until blended. Add coffee; beat on medium for 2 minutes.

Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Combine cinnamon and remaining sugar; sprinkle half of the mixture over batter. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Immediately sprinkle remaining cinnamon-sugar over cupcakes. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely. Yield: about 2-1/2 dozen.
