How to Make Buttermilk Chocolate Cupcakes
- **Prepare the Cupcake Batter:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the wet ingredients: buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix on low speed with an electric mixer until just combined.
- Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat for 2 minutes, or until the batter is smooth and well-combined.
- Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- **Make the Frosting:** While the cupcakes cool, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating on low speed until combined.
- Add the cocoa powder and buttermilk. Beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
- Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost generously with the chocolate frosting.
- Enjoy your delicious homemade buttermilk chocolate cupcakes!
