Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 0.5 tsp baking powder
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup strong brewed coffee (cooled)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients in three parts, alternating with the buttermilk and coffee. Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Frost with your favorite chocolate or buttercream frosting and enjoy!
