- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- pinch salt
- 1 large egg (room temperature)

NUTELLA FROSTING
- Make the frosting first, in a large bowl add the mascarpone, Nutella, sugar and cream, beat until very thick. Refrigerate for one hour. (while cupcakes are baking and cooling).
CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES
- In a large bowl whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt, then add the egg, milk, vanilla and oil beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
- Add the boiling water and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula (do not beat) to combine. Pour into prepared cupcake pan and bake for approximately 15 minutes (check with a toothpick for doneness). Let cool completely before frosting. Enjoy!
