Fudge Brownie Cupcakes
3 squares unsweetened chocolate (1 oz. each)
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
2/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
large pinch salt
2 eggs
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup milk
Preheat the oven to 325DgF. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease and flour the tins; set aside.
In a small heavy saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and chocolate, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Slowly add the sugar, beating until very light and thick. Beat in the chocolate mixture, then the vanilla. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
Pour batter into prepared tins, filling each 2/3 full. Bake cupcakes until tops are shiny and edges are set but centers are still quite soft, 25-30 minutes. Cool in the tins for about 10 minutes, then carefully remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
