Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 2 large eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup whole milk
• 0.75 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a mini cupcake pan with 24 mini paper liners or lightly grease the wells.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

In a larger mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Whisk until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, to the wet mixture, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Spoon the batter into the prepared mini cupcake pan, filling each liner about 3/4 full.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.

Step 9

Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your decadent Double Chocolate Mini Cupcakes as is or pair with a dollop of frosting for an extra indulgence!
