So tomorrow my baby girl, Rebekah Lynn Clayton will be 22.. Mama is feeling old.. where did the time go.. I blinked and she is now a grown woman.. I just can't believe it..
We had a birthday party for her on Saturday.. it was awesome, and I made Chocolate Cupcakes for dessert, along with other things.. This recipe is definitely a keeper and so easy.. you just need a big bowl, a whisk, rubber scraper, measuring cups and spoons, pans and the ingredients...
Chocolate Cupcakes
3 cups all purpose flour
3 cups sugar
1 1/2 c cocoa
1 tbsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 c buttermilk
3/4 c vegetable oil
1 1/2 c warm water
3 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
In a large bowl mix together the first 6 ingredients. make a well in the middle and add the buttermilk, water, oil, eggs and vanilla and mix well.. Whisk until smooth.. place cupcake liners in muffin tins and fill about 2/3 full. Bake in 350 degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes.. cool and frost with your favorite frosting.
Makes about 48 cupcakes..
