Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp white vinegar
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 cup chocolate frosting (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
- In a mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to combine!
- In another bowl, combine the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and white vinegar. Stir it well, because we need a good mix of flavors!
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Remember, lumps are totally fine! Add those chopped strawberries to the batter and fold gently.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Time to bake those cupcakes in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, allow the cupcakes to cool completely. Be patient, we don’t want to ruin the frosting!
- Now it’s time for frosting! Generously swirl or dollop the chocolate frosting on each cupcake. Feel free to get creative—go for the dramatic peaks or simple rounds, you do you!
- For an optional finishing touch, garnish with a slice of strawberry on top. Voilà! You’ve made the ultimate cupcake!
