Ingredients
- 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cups pumpkin puree
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cups vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, vegetable oil, and pure vanilla extract until smooth and uniform.
Step 4
Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cupcakes dense.
Step 5
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips gently using a spoon or spatula.
Step 6
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake the cupcakes in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs attached.
Step 8
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.
Step 9
Optionally, top with chocolate glaze, frosting, or a dusting of powdered sugar for added indulgence.
