Ingredients
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 8 ounces cake flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 ounces bittersweet chocolate
- 2 ounces semisweet chocolate
- 2 ounces water
- 4 ounces unsalted butter
- 8 ounces plus 3 ounces sugar
- 4 ounces egg yolks
- 4 ounces egg whites
- 8 ounces milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Prepare a cupcake pan with paper liners and lightly spray with nonstick spray. Sift the cake four, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. Set aside.
Melt chocolates and water over low heat in a double boiler.
In a mixer with a paddle attachment, slowly cream butter and 8 ounces of sugar. Add egg yolks, 1 at a time, and beat until fluffy.
In a separate bowl, with a mixer and wire whip attachment, whip egg whites and 3 ounces of sugar until stiff peaks form.
Combine milk and vanilla in a measuring glass. Fold melted chocolate mixture into butter mixture. Alternately fold the flour mixture and milk mixture into the butter mixture. Gently fold in the whipped egg whites. Fill cupcake cups 2/3 full and bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 15 minutes.

This cupcake came out horrible, the batter tasted very good but they fell. Also every thing is in oz and it was annoying to convert everything. Overall try another recipe.

These were the best cupcakes I have ever made! Like one of the reviewers below I wish they would have said how many eggs instead of oz. However, I did use 4 eggs & 4 egg whites and it came out delicious anyway. Cupcakes were moist and fluffy. Also I did use Ghiradelli bittersweet chocolate morsels so maybe that did help a little. Will definitely bake the again.
