EGGLESS CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES WITH STEP WISE INSTRUCTIONS:
Ingredients:
1 Cup =250ml
Makes -12 cupcakes
- All-purpose flour/Maida - 1 ½ cup
- Cocoa powder - ¼ cup
- Sugar- 1 cup
- Baking soda -1Tsp
- Instant coffee powder - 1Tbsp

In a mixing bowl, sift the plain flour and cocoa powder. Mix well.
Add baking soda, sugar, salt and mix well.
In a mug add 1 cup of water and to that add instant coffee powder, oil, vanilla extract and stir well.
Add this liquid to the dry ingredients and combine with the help of a spatula.
Then using an electric beater or whisk beat until it is just combined. Don't overbeat otherwise cupcakes will not be soft.
Using an ice cream scoop or a spoon fill the pre-lined cupcake cases with the batter up to ⅔rd.
Bake in a preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until skewers comes clean. ( Mine done at 20 minutes)
Once it is baked allow it to cool in the tin for 5 minutes.
Now transfer the cake on to wire a rack and allow it to cool completely.
You can enjoy the cupcakes like that or use your favourite buttercream to decorate.
Here I melted some dark chocolate in the microwave and dipped the cupcakes in it and decorated with some sprinkles.
NOTE:
You can increase the quantity of sugar according to your taste.

Such moist looking cup cakes. I can just imagine how delicious these are!
Thank you Azlin. Yes, they were so moist and my kids finished them in one day.
That was a voww recipe.. can v use the same amount of lemon instead of vinegar?
Thank you Revathy.Yes you can use vinegar.
Thank you Azlin, yes they are moist and delicious.
Can I replace oil with apple sauce?
Can I replace sugar with honey?
Hi, I have not tried this recipe with apple sauce and honey. So I am not sure of it.
Truly utterly the best not only eggless but vegan chocolate cupcake recipe I have come across.
Only one thing is that, the vinegar was part of the ingredients but not part of the method and so it got left out, but none the less, they were so rich yet not too ‘chocolatey’ but super soft!
Thank you!
Nina, thank you very much for your feedback. I'm so glad you enjoyed the cupcakes.
