My crazy marathon friend once offered me a cupcakes recipe book. But it is only yesterday that I found this easy tasty simple basic chocolate cupcakes delightful recipe.
Ingredients:
- 75 g of cacao powder
- 300 ml of boiling water
- 3 big eggs

- 300 g of sugar
- ½ tsp of baking powder
- ½ tsp of baking soda
- 190 g of butter at room temperature
Procedure:
- Preheat the oven at 160 C
- Mix well the boiling water with the cacao on a very low fire
- Mix the eggs + ¼ of the cacao mix + vanilla + chocolate
- In another recipient mix the dry ingredients, then add the butter + the other ¾ of the cacao mixture
- Add the eggs mixture in two fold and mix for a minute
- Fill the cupcakes cups 2/3 full
- Cook for about 20 to 25 minutes (depending on the size of your cupcakes) or until top springs back when touched
