How to Make Black Cat Cupcakes
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with 12 cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, and ¾ teaspoon baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup buttermilk.
- Fill each cupcake liner about ¾ full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, frost the cupcakes with your favorite chocolate frosting.
- Add two jelly beans for eyes (bright green or yellow work best!). You can add other candy for extra Halloween flair, such as mini chocolate chips for whiskers.
