Ingredients
For the cupcakes:
- 4 ounces (113 grams) semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/3 cup (33 grams) Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup hot coffee
- 3/4 cup (95 grams) bread flour
- 3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 6 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup Nutella
For the buttercream:
- 2 sticks (227 grams) unsalted butter, at cool room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups (375 grams) powdered sugar, sifted
- 1/3 cup seedless raspberry preserves
- Red food coloring, if desired
Instructions
For the cupcakes:
- Place the chocolate and cocoa powder in a medium heatproof bowl. Pour hot coffee over the mixture. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Whisk gently until smooth then set aside to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with foil or paper liners.
- In a small bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda together. Set aside.
- Whisk the oil, eggs, vinegar, and vanilla into the cooled chocolate mixture until smooth. Stir in the flour mixture until smooth. Using a spring-loaded scoop or a large spoon, divide the batter evenly among prepared muffin cups.
- Bake until cupcakes are set and firm to the touch, about 17 to 19 minutes. Let the cupcakes cool completely. Using an apple corer or pairing knife, remove a small section of the center of the cupcake, being careful not to slice through the bottom. Fill each hole with 1 heaping teaspoon of Nutella.
For the buttercream:
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla. Gradually add the sugar, one cup at a time, beating well on medium speed. Add the raspberry preserves and beat until light and fluffy. For a more saturated color, add a few drops of red food coloring, if desired.
- Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a decorative piping tip. Pipe frosting directly onto the stuffed cupcakes. Serve or store at room temperature for a day or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
