This is a recipe for chocolate cupcakes that I keep on using and I will never change a thing from this recipe. It was adopted from Hershey's cocoa and I just adjusted the sugar to my liking. It is the same recipe I used for my Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Frosting.

Soft, moist and fluffy is how I will describe this cake. Easy to prepare and so delicious! A recipe that has been tried by many of my followers.

Procedure:
  • Preheat oven to 350F / 176C. Line two 12-cavity or one 24-cavity muffin pans with baking cups.
  • In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Stir well to incorporate. 
  • Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla. Beat for about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the boiling water. Beat on low or use a whish or spatula to stir in. The batter will be thin. 
  • Pour batter into prepared muffin pans and fill about 2/3 full.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. 
  • Cool for 5 minutes in a pan on a wire rack. Remove from pans and transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Dissolve coffee in hot water. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the butter for full 5 minutes until light and creamy.
  • Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar and beat Dulce de Leche and beat well to combine.
  • Add the dissolved coffee and tbsp milk. Beat to combine.
  • Add the vanilla and continue beating on high until light and fluffy.
  • ​Transfer the frosting in a piping bag fitted with a tip of choice and decorated as desired. ​


RECIPE NOTES:

  • Recipe yields  28-30 cupcakes. 
  • Make sure to fill each liners with 2/3 cup cake batter. If you fill at 3/4 full, it will overflow on the sides like it has a hat when you pull it from the pan. 
  • Check the cupcakes before the set time as oven temperature varies.
  • Powdered sugar can be adjusted accordingly.
  • Store cupcakes in an airtight container on the counter  at room temperature for up to a week but best to eat within 3-4 days.  Past that, cupcakes will dry out and taste will be a bit different than when fresh.
  • If stored in the refrigerator, the cupcakes dries up and won't taste fresh.
  • Only frost the cupcakes that you will consume. 
  • I used 1M Wilton tip to decorate and wilton pearls.
  • Frosting can be refrigerated the rewhip before using. It can also be stored in the freezer, take it out to thaw then whip again.
