My Favorite Chocolate Cupcakes

These are my favorite cupcakes to make as presents. I've been making these with the same ratio for years. These make really good presents as they're still delicious even after 2~3 days!

Whipping the butter is key. Be sure to bring it to room temperature, and whip until it is slightly stiffer than mayonnaise. Whip air into the butter to change its color from yellow to white.
Once you add the dry ingredients, don't over mix. Fold in gently with a rubber spatula. For 12 muffins using 3 cm [1.2 in] diameter aluminum cups (6 muffins using 5.5cm diameter muffin molds). Recipe by Yu-tantan
