Mini Chocolate Cupcakes, a delicious and mildly sweetened chocolate cupcakes which are perfect for your kids snack box as well as tea time snacks.
In general, i'm not a big fan of icing so i never used it here. But you're making this for a party or birthday celebration, then you can decorate them with some icing and it would be a perfect treat!
Procedure
I have been making this chocolate cupcakes regularly at our home for over a year now. It's always been a such a huge hit with my kid. He loves this chocolate cupcake and ask me to bake this often so at alteast once in a month i make this.
During this year's spring break, i made these chocolate cupcakes twice in a week and he eagerly did all the mixing and patiently waited till it got ready :-)
For the given measurement in the recipe index, it makes exactly 12 mini cupcakes. But you can also use the same batter to bake it in a 6 inch cake tin as well as 5*7 inch loaf pan. It all turned out good.
As i said earlier, this chocolate cup cake is mildly sweetened and that's how we like it in our home. For more sweetness, i would recommend to add 2 more tbsp of sugar and use milk chocolate chips (instead of semi sweet chocolate chips). That's what i do when i bake this cake for friends :-)
So now let's check out how to make these simple and delicious chocolate cupcakes.
