Chocolate Cupcakes - Easiest Recipe in the World

Martha’s One Bowl Chocolate Cupcakes With ButterCream Frosting

 

These were the easiest cupcakes I have ever made.  Delicious and moist…perfect Martha knows her stuff!

 

 It was fun mixing colors to make the spectrum of cupcake colors.   Just a little advice when mixing colors…don’t mix green into pink and add yellow.  It comes out a very disgusting yucky unappetizing green/brown.  I should have pulled my color wheel out!

 

Makes 24 medium cupcakes

Ingredients

 

¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 ½ cups sugar

1 ½ teaspoons baking soda

¾ teaspoon baking powder

¾ teaspoon salt

2 large eggs

¾ cups warm water

¾ cup buttermilk

3 tablespoons canola oil

1-teaspoon vanilla extract

 

Preheat oven to 350°F.  Line cupcake pan with paper liners.  Sift cocoa, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a large bowl.  Add eggs, water buttermilk, oil and vanilla, mix until smooth.

 

Pour batter in to prepared tins using a ¼ cup-measuring cup.  Tins should be 2/3 full.  Bake until tops spring back when touched, about 20 minutes.  Transfer cupcakes to a wire rack, cool completely before icing

 

Martha’s Buttercream frosting

 

12 oz (3 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

16oz confectioners’ sugar

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

 

Beat butter until pale and creamy using an electric mixer on high speed.  Reduce speed to low and gradually add sugar, beating after each addition.  Add vanilla and beat until icing is creamy and smooth.  Cover and refrigerate until ready to use, bring to room temperature to ice cupcakes.  Add food coloring as desired.

My Fiance loved the watch. The only thing is the face was a little larger than what she usually wears since her wrist is very small. But she still loves it. She usually wears watches about 1 inch in diameter.watches iwc|
