Chocolate Cupcakes

I was craving for cupcakes so decided to make one! :)







1/2  cup Dutch-Processed Cocoa Powder
1  cup boiling water
1 1/3  cups All-purpose flour
2  teaspoons baking powder
1/4  teaspoon salt
1/2  cup butter
1  cup white sugar
2  large eggs
2  teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Lightly butter, or line 16 muffin cups with paper liners.

In a small bowl, stir until smooth the boiling water and the cocoa powder.  Let cool.

In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.

Then in a bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth. Beat in the vanilla extract and the flour mixture.  Then add the cooled cocoa mixture and stir until smooth.

Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full and bake about 16-20 minutes.
