Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup milk at room temperature
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup boiling water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add in the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Carefully pour in the boiling water, and gently mix the batter until smooth and well combined. It will be quite thin – that's the secret to the moist texture!
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about ⅔ full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, frost the cupcakes with your favorite chocolate frosting and sprinkle with a bit of chocolate shavings for that extra special touch.

Notes
- Batter Consistency: Don't be alarmed if the batter seems thin; this is what helps the cupcakes stay moist after baking.
- Testing Doneness: Use a toothpick to check if the cupcakes are done. Insert it into the center; if it comes out clean, they're ready to come out of the oven.
- Cooling Time: Allow the cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
