Soft Double Chocolate Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
How to make Soft Double Chocolate Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe - I have been perfecting homemade chocolate cupcake recipes for years, and I am happy to say I have created what we think is the perfect recipe. You can also use this recipe for a layered chocolate cake that is great for birthdays and other celebrations. Divide the batter between two 9-inch cake pans and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until cooked through. The kids love to be in charge of the mixer for this recipe. You can also use Chocolate Buttercream Frosting for your cupcakes.
Ingredients:
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1⁄2 cup milk
3⁄4 cup all-purpose flour
1⁄3 cup cocoa powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
2 large eggs
1⁄2 cup sour cream
1⁄2 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Cream Cheese Frosting
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two 12-count muffin pans with 19 cupcake liners.
2. Finely chop the chocolate chips and place in a medium-size bowl. In a microwave-safe cup, heat the milk in the microwave until hot, 60 to 90 seconds. Pour the hot milk over the chopped chocolate chips. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and melted.
3. Add the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, salt, and baking soda to a large bowl and mix to combine. Add the eggs, sour cream, canola oil, and vanilla to a stand mixer and mix on medium speed until well combined, about 1 minute. Slowly add the melted chocolate, followed by the dry ingredients, mixing until combined, about 1 minute. Fill the cupcake liners half full and bake for 15 to 17 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the cupcakes. Let cool completely.
4. To make the cream cheese frosting, add the cream cheese and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer and beat on medium speed until smooth. Slowly add the powdered sugar, beating until well combined. Spread the frosting on the cooled cupcakes.
