I'm a numbers person. I am the absolute worst at remembering names but if you tell me a number - it's permanently written on my brain. For a long time, I assumed that everyone memorized their drivers license number, license plates number, credit card numbers and the phone number of the best pizza place in town. 💁🏻♀️ Like I said - I like numbers. So here are the numbers for my newest chocolate cupcakes: 10 the number of minutes that it took to consume all of these delicious cupcakes 9 the number of times I walked past these cupcakes and snatched a chocolate curl 8 the number of cupcakes that I made in a half batch 7 the number of pictures of these cupcakes that I posted on my blog 6 the number of times I said "mmmmm" while eating this cupcake 5 the minutes that I let these cool before sinking my teeth into one 4 the number of eggs that it takes to make a batch of these decadent cupcakes 3 the trifecta of chocolate in these beauties: cake, frosting and sprinkles 2 different types of chocolate are combined to make these amazing cupcakes 1 the ranking that I would give this cupcake against all other recipes I've been making chocolate cupcakes from scratch for a long time. Why change up my tried and true recipe now? In short: thecupcakeproject.com is boldly claiming that they have created the "perfect" chocolate cupcake recipe. Obviously - I had to try it for myself. 🧁 I honestly expected to find something very similar to my old standby chocolate cupcake recipe when I checked out the "perfect" chocolate cupcake recipe. I was super surprised to discover a list of ingredients that were actually quite different from my recipe. It certainly peaked my interest enough to give them a try. Chocolate Cupcakes 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1/4 cup butter room temperature 1 cup sugar 2 ounces chocolate 2 large eggs room temperature 2 large egg yolks room temperature 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon canola oil 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/3 cup sour cream 1/2 cup water room temperature
Bake 18 minutes at 350. Frost these beauties with your favorite frosting. I chose a chocolate, whipped cream and cream cheese frosting. 😋 I decided to only make a half batch of cupcakes because - well, honestly - I have zero will power when it comes to chocolate cupcakes and I didn't trust myself to have too many sitting around the house. 😅
Ciao!
