{Recipe} My favourite chocolate cupcake recipe

I have tried several recipes for chocolate cupcakes and for me, this is the best. The cupcakes are easy to eat as they don't crumble too much but the texture is still light.

Chocolate cupcakes

Will make 12 cupcakes

Ingredients:
125g butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
150g caster sugar
2 medium eggs
185g self-raising flour

Preheat oven to 180 degree C (or 160 degree C if fan assisted)
Line a tin with cupcake paper cases.

Beat butter with the cocoa powder+milk mix until well mixed.
Add vanilla extract, sugar and eggs and beat with electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Stir in sifted flour and milk, in two batches.

Divide mixture into cake cases and bake for 20 minutes.
