Delicious Fudge Filled Cupcakes Recipe

These cupcakes feature a moist chocolate cake filled with a luscious fudge center, topped with a creamy chocolate frosting. The recipe takes about 1 hour from start to finish and yields 12 cupcakes.

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup fudge sauce (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup chocolate frosting (store-bought or homemade)
Chocolate shavings or sprinkles for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and buttermilk until well combined.
Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fill Cupcake Liners: Fill each cupcake liner about halfway with the batter. Add a teaspoon of fudge sauce in the center of each cupcake, then cover with more batter until the liners are about 3/4 full.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool: Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frost: Once cooled, frost the cupcakes with chocolate frosting and garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles if desired.
