How to Make Brownie Kiss Cupcakes

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about ⅔ full with batter.
  7. Place one Hershey's Kiss (or similar chocolate candy) upside down in the center of each cupcake.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached (don't overbake!).
  9. Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
