Ingredients
Scale:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
In another bowl, mix the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are okay.
If using chocolate chips, fold them into the batter gently.
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
