Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a muffin pan or line it with paper cupcake liners to prevent sticking.
2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sifted cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
3
In a separate large bowl, beat the egg until frothy. Add in the milk, packed brown sugar, melted butter, corn syrup, lemon juice (or vinegar), and vanilla extract. Mix well until all wet ingredients are fully incorporated.
4
Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, stirring gently until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps. Be careful not to over-mix.
5
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about 2/3 full to allow for rising.
7
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
8
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the cupcakes cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9
Tips: Once cooled, feel free to decorate the cupcakes with your favorite icing or ganache. Add colorful sprinkles or chocolate shavings for an extra special touch!
