Decadent Chocolate Cupcakes
Ingredients
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius. Next, prepare a muffin tin by lining it with either paper or foil inserts to facilitate easy removal of the baked goods.
2
Sift all dry ingredients, including flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, into a separate bowl to ensure they are well combined.
3
In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar and butter on high speed until the mixture reaches a light and airy consistency.
4
Gradually add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition to prevent any lumps from forming. Incorporate vanilla extract into the mixture for added flavor.
5
Alternate adding dry ingredients and milk to the mixing bowl in two separate batches, ensuring each component is fully incorporated before proceeding.
6
Spoon the prepared batter into the muffin tin cups, filling each approximately 3/4 full to allow for even baking.
7
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of each muffin comes out clean, requiring 15 to 17 minutes.
8
Remove the baked goods from the oven and allow them to cool completely before serving or decorating.
