How to Make Chai Tea Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup chai tea mix, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients and 1 cup milk to the wet ingredients, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Fill cupcake liners ¾ full.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cupcakes cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cupcakes cool, prepare the frosting (recipe below).
- Once cupcakes are completely cool, frost them generously.
- Sprinkle with cocoa powder or powdered sugar for garnish.
