Dark Chocolate Cupcakes

This recipe just makes 6 large cupcakes or a larger number of small ones. It’s easily doubled for a larger batch, but I like to make a small batch so I don’t eat them all. I’ll post a frosting recipe next.

Ingredients:
55 g butter
¼ cup cocoa
30 g chocolate
1 tbsp water
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
1 pinch salt
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup yogurt

Instructions:
1. Melt the butter, cocoa, chocolate, and water together over low heat, stirring the whole time.
2. Mix the sugar, flour, baking powder, and baking soda together, and then mix the dry ingredients in to the chocolate.
3. Whisk the egg and the vanilla together and then mix them and the yogurt in with the rest of the batter. Stir well.
4. Place in muffin cases. Bake at 180 C for about 15 minutes (7 minutes for mini-cupcakes).
