Instructions

For the Cupcakes

Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 12-count cupcake tin with paper liners (or spray with nonstick spray). Set aside.
Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
In another large bowl, beat the sugar and vegetable oil until fluffy using an electric mixer. Add in the milk, eggs, and vanilla, and beat until smooth and fluffy.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 3 increments, beating until smooth after each addition. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Line the cupcake pan with liners. Fill each liner with an even amount of batter.
Bake until the tops become a light brown color and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 18-20 minutes.
Transfer the cupcakes to a wire rack and let them cool to room temperature.

For the Buttercream Icing

While the cupcakes are baking, use an electric mixer to beat the butter until smooth and creamy.
Add in the powdered sugar, a little at a time, until fully incorporated. Then, add in the vanilla and milk, and mix until combined.
Once the cupcakes have completely cooled, pipe the icing onto the cupcakes. Place a few chocolate chips and a mini chocolate chip cookie in the piped icing.

Notes

Storage: Store chocolate chip cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
