How to Make One Bowl Chocolate Cupcakes

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add the eggs, oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.
  4. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, mix on low speed until just combined.
  5. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix on high speed for 2-3 minutes, until the batter is smooth and creamy.
  6. Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Frost and enjoy!
