1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

¼ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Combine Sugars and Butter: In another bowl, mix granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
  4. Add Eggs: Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until smooth. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: If using, gently fold in chocolate chips.
  7. Fill the Muffin Tin: Distribute the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about ¾ full.
  8. Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Cool: Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Dust with Powdered Sugar: Optionally, dust the cooled cupcakes with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

For a nutty version, add chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds to the batter.

For a mint twist, add peppermint extract to the batter.

To make gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
