Time 35m

Yield 12 Cupcakes, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup of fresh butter
1/2 cup chocolate chips
3/4 cup flour, plus
3 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup raw sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 medium eggs, plus
1 medium egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup Greek yogurt or 1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup of softened butter
3 cups powdered sugar
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
whole milk, for thinning

Steps:

  • Pre-heat stove to 350 degrees. Line a cupcake baking pan using liners.
  • Place vegetable oil, the chocolate chips, along with the butter right into a microwave safe dish. Microwave with 30 second amounts, mixing each 30 seconds, till only just melted.
  • Blend the flour, the baking soda and the powder, the cocoa powder, along with the sea salt within a medium sized dish. Stir until mixed.
  • Within a large dish, blend the sugars, the eggs, along with the vanilla. Stir till blended. Add the melted dark chocolate mix, and then stir till blended.
  • Switch adding the flour mix along with the yogurt to the sugar mix. Blend till just mixed ( I simply made use of a whisk). Include the hot water very last, and blend till it's mixed.
  • Make use of a cookie scoop to split the mixture equally between your cupcake liners. I filled up mine around 3/4 of the way full, however I would certainly fill slightly less the next time.
  • Cook for 16 to 18 minutes, or till a tooth-pick comes out clear.
  • For The Frosting.
  • Whip the butter with high using a blender for around 2 minutes. Next add the powdered sugar along with the cocoa powder, gradually.Next add the vanilla. Add the whole milk as needed for preferred thickness. Whip for around 3 minutes making it fluffier.
  • Pipe the actual icing on top of the cupcakes by using a sealed star tip. Top using dark chocolate sprinkles.

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
2/3 cup cocoa powder (I use dutch processed)
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs (room temperature)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup buttermilk* (room temperature)
1 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened to room temperature)
4-5 cups powdered sugar (sifted)
3/4 cup cocoa powder (sifted)
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
3-4 tablespoons heavy cream (or milk)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 365F degrees and line 2 muffin pans with muffin papers. You'll end up with about 18-20 cupcakes total.
  • In a large bowl whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a separate large bowl using a stand mixer or whisk, whisk together the oil, sugar, vanilla extract and eggs until no lumps remain. Whisk in the buttermilk.
  • Whisk in the dry ingredients about 1/2 at a time until smooth.
  • Spoon the batter into your lined muffin papers, filling each about 1/2 full. You should end up with 18-20 cupcakes total.
  • Bake 1 tray at a time on the middle rack of the preheated oven for 16-20 minutes, or until the tops feel slightly firm to the touch and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10-20 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling
  • In a large bowl using a stand or hand-held electric mixer, beat the butter until fluffy.
  • Add in 2 cups powdered sugar, vanilla extract and salt and beat until combined.
  • Turn the mixer down to low speed and beat in the cocoa powder.
  • Beat in the rest of the powdered sugar about 1/2 cup at a time, alternating with 1 tablespoon cream until the desired sweetness and thickness is reach.
  • Frost the cupcakes using a piping bag and your favorite cupcake piping tip (I used a 1M) or a flat edge knife. Optionally decorate with chocolate chips or sprinkles.

QUICK DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES

Categories     dessert

Time 23m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 box devil's food cake mix, such as Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
2 to 3 cups White Faux Buttercream, recipe follows, colored or swirled with your favorite color
Licorice whips
Crushed peppermint candies
Crushed lemon drops
Multicolored jimmies or nonpareils
Mini white and dark chocolate chips
Small chocolate candies
Colored decorating sugars
Cereals such as corn pops, fruit rings or graham cracker cereal squares
3 sticks (12 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons whole milk, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Food coloring, such as yellow, blue and red, or your favorite, if desired

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line two 12-cup standard muffin tins with paper cupcake liners and set aside.
  • In a bowl, using an electric mixer, mix the cake mix, 1 1/3 cups water, oil and eggs on medium speed until moistened and smooth. Stir in 3/4 cup chocolate chips. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, stirring it occasionally to redistribute the chocolate chips. The batter will nearly fill each liner to the top. Evenly sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips over the tops of the cupcakes. Bake until the cupcakes spring back when lightly touched, or a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
  • When cool, put the White Faux Buttercream out with spoons or small spatulas along with bowls of the cupcake toppings for the kids to decorate their own cupcakes.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, using the paddle attachment, whip the butter on high speed until very soft. Meanwhile, place a large sheet of parchment paper on a work surface. Using a large sifter, sift the confectioners' sugar onto the parchment. This helps prevent clumping and makes the mixing easier. Lower the speed of the mixer and, using the parchment as a funnel, pour half the sugar into the bowl and mix slowly until combined. Add the milk and mix until combined. Once combined, add the remaining sugar with the vanilla and mix. Once it is combined, turn the mixer speed up and beat the icing until very light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. If desired, divide the icing into smaller batches and color with food coloring.
  • Spread the icing on cooled cupcakes while at room temperature. Refrigerate any leftover icing, but be sure to let it come back to room temperature before using. Re-whip the icing to make it fluffy again. Makes 4 cups (enough for 24 cupcakes).
  • Yield: about 8 cups, enough for at least 6 dozen cupcakes
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes Ease of preparation: easy

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES



Double Chocolate Cupcakes image

These are chocolate cupcakes with chocolate chips. They are flavored with orange juice; I just love the taste combo of chocolate and orange! To stay on the healthy side of things, they only use 3 T. oil for fat. And besides...we NEED the bioflavanoids in chocolate, right? Er, uh, or whatever those health people said.

Time 27m

Yield 10 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup orange juice
3 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup mini chocolate chip
1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine dry ingredients. Make a well in the middle.
  • In a separate bowl, combine wet ingredients, including the 1/3 cup water.
  • Put wet mixture in the well of dry ingredients. Stir just until moistened.
  • Fold in chips. Use a light hand; a heavy hand leads to heavy cupcakes.
  • Use cupcake liners for muffin pans. Fill about 2/3 full with batter. Any empty muffin holders should be filled half full with water. Do not just put under the sink to do this. Put water in a something with a lip, like a liquid measuring cup, and use that. (Yes, I learned this the hard way.).
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 12 minutes. Leaving on the liners, remove from pans immediately. Cool on racks.
  • Number of muffins really depends on how full you fill your tins.
  • Sprinkle tops with confection's sugar, if desired.
