Mini Chocolate Cupcakes

01Method

1. 1

   Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line 16 mini muffin cavities with paper liners.

2. 2

   Combine flour, both sugars, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl, breaking up any lumps with a whisk.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, oil, and vanilla until smooth, then pour into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined — avoid overmixing. Gently fold in the pudding with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the bowl, then stir in the chocolate chips. The batter will be quite thin.

4. 4

   Using a small scoop or a spouted measuring cup, fill each prepared liner about two-thirds full.

5. 5

   Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, approximately 10 minutes.
