Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line cupcake/muffin pan with cupcake liners.
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together egg, buttermilk, oil and vanilla and set aside.

In a separate large bowl, add flour, both sugars, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and whisk to combine.

In batches, add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and whisk until smooth.

Lastly, mix in hot water and whisk until combined and perfectly smooth.

The batter should be somewhat thin.

Add batter to cupcake liners filling only halfway and bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.

Allow cupcakes to cool to room temperature before adding buttercream.

Serves: 14-16 cupcakes
