Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.

In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.

With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk. Beat until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in dark chocolate chips.

Fill each cupcake liner with batter until it is about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow cupcakes to cool for 10 minutes in the muffin pan, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
