Are you ready to make the Best eggless chocolate cupcakes you have ever made?

Packed with chocolate flavour this recipe is super simple to make and soon will be your super favourite.

For best results, use good quality cocoa powder and buttermilk. Moreover, with chocolate buttercream frosting, these cupcakes taste completely awesome.

However, if you wish to have these without frosting, it will taste equally awesome.

This recipe is meant for cupcakes but you can easily bake it as a cake too. In that case, the baking time will be more than cupcakes (refer notes for cake temperature and timing).

What if I don’t have Buttermilk to bake these Eggless Chocolate Cupcakes?

Using buttermilk in cakes is a common practice. I have shared quite a few cake recipes on the blog using buttermilk.

If you don’t have buttermilk at home, which is commonly known as chaash, just follow this simple recipe to make it.

I mixed 1 cup milk with 2 teaspoons vinegar and let it sit for few minutes and then used this as buttermilk for making these cupcakes.

Vinegar is important here, since it would react with baking soda to produce carbon dioxide and help the batter to rise while baking.

However, if you don’t have vinegar,  use 1 cup sour buttermilk known as chaas by replacing milk and vinegar in this recipe.

All you have to do is to assemble dry ingredients in one bowl and wet ingredients in another bowl, blend or whip everything together and bake. It’s so simple.

Step by Step instructions on how to make eggless chocolate cupcakes

Make it a point to always sieve your dry ingredients from a height to create aeration and that results into tender crumb outcome.

Mix liquid in the dry ingredients. Whip it in a stand mixer or by a spatula or hand blender only till the batter is smooth and no lumps. Don’t over beat.

For Chocolate Buttercream frosting

Beat on low speed for few seconds, then increase to high speed and beat for 1 full minute until it reaches medium peak (neither soft nor stiff) consistency.

Add more icing sugar or cocoa powder little by little with a spoon,  if frosting is too thin. Add another spoon of cream if frosting is too thick.

Taste the test. Use immediately by filling it in piping bag with nozzle Wilton 1M attached to it

Once cupcakes are cooled completely, frost them using this chocolate buttercream frosting.
