Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted (1 stick)
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole milk (or milk alternative)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup hot coffee (or hot water)

Whipped Cream Topping:

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, mix melted butter, oil, sugar, and vanilla. Add milk and eggs one at a time, whisking until smooth.
  4. Blend wet and dry ingredients: Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients and whisk until just combined.
  5. Add coffee: Stir in hot coffee slowly—the batter will be thin.
  6. Bake: Fill liners ¾ full and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool and fill: Cool cupcakes in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Whip cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
  8. Fill cupcakes: Core each cupcake and fill with whipped cream. Pipe cream on top if desired and garnish with chocolate shavings or sprinkles.

Notes

  • Use Dutch-processed cocoa for deeper chocolate flavor.
  • Cool cupcakes completely before adding whipped cream.
  • Store in fridge for up to 4 days.
