Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 48 mini cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup milk, at room temperature
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Pinch fine salt
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and position the oven rack to the middle. Line two 24-cup mini-muffin tins with cupcake liners.
  • For the cookie crust: Combine the flour, salt and baking soda in a small bowl and set aside. Beat the butter and both sugars together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed until creamy, about 4 minutes (or in a large bowl if using an electric mixer). Add the egg and vanilla and beat until incorporated, about 1 minute. Adjust the speed to low, add the flour mixture and beat until incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Drop 1 heaping teaspoon of cookie dough into each liner and press down firmly. Bake until slightly puffed and golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool until warm to the touch, and then press down the crust once more. Cool completely.
  • For the brown sugar cake: Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and light brown sugar together on medium-high speed until light and foamy, about 2 minutes (or in a large bowl if using a hand-held electric mixer). While beating, gradually pour in the butter and then the vanilla.
  • While mixing slowly, add half the dry ingredients, then add all the milk, and follow with the rest of the dry ingredients. Take care not to overmix the batter. Drop 1 heaping teaspoon of batter on top of each cookie crust.
  • Bake until a tester inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, rotating the tins about halfway through, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Cool the cupcakes on a rack in the tins for 10 minutes, and then remove from the tins and cool on the rack completely.
  • For the chocolate frosting: Combine the cocoa powder and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl if using a hand-held electric mixer). Mix on low until combined. Add the vanilla and salt. Continue to mix on low speed and add the confectioners' sugar and milk in alternating batches. Increase the speed to medium-high and mix until fully incorporated and smooth.
  • Fill a pastry bag fitted with a round or star tip and pipe small chocolate drops on top of each cupcake.

Yield Makes 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
Finely grated zest of 1 navel orange
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole milk
1 1/4 cups semisweet mini chocolate chips (7 1/2 oz)
1/4 cup heavy cream
Special Equipment
a muffin tin with 12 (1/2-cup) muffin cups, plus paper liners

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Beat together butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, then beat in egg, zest, and vanilla.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt and mix into butter mixture at low speed, alternating with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
  • Fold in 1/2 cup chips and divide batter among lined muffin cups.
  • Bake in middle of oven until pale golden and a tester comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn cupcakes out onto a rack to cool completely.
  • Bring cream to a simmer in a small heavy saucepan and add remaining 3/4 cup chips, whisking until smooth. Spread frosting on cupcakes.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help your cupcakes and frosting come together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: This is important for any baking recipe, but especially for cupcakes and frosting, where the proportions of ingredients are critical.
  • Don't overmix your batter: Overmixing can make your cupcakes tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake your cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that your cupcakes are cooked through.
  • Let your cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting or sliding off the cupcakes.
  • Use a piping bag or a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to frost your cupcakes: This will give you more control over the frosting and help you create a smooth, even finish.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chip cupcakes with chocolate chip frosting are a classic treat that is perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and always a hit with kids and adults alike.
