Ingredients
  

For the Cupcakes
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Substitute with a gluten-free all-purpose blend if necessary.
  • 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder Consider dark cocoa for an even deeper taste.
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder Keep it fresh for the best rise.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Coconut sugar can be used as a healthier alternative.
  • 2 large Eggs Use flax eggs for a vegan option.
  • 1/2 cup Milk Almond milk works well for a dairy-free version.
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil Melted butter is a great substitute.
  • 1/2 cup Espresso Instant coffee can also work in a pinch.

  • 1 cup Mascarpone Cheese Ricotta can be a good alternative.
  • 1 tbsp Cocoa Powder (for dusting) Adds a touch of bitterness to balance sweetness.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and granulated sugar.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vegetable oil until smooth and well blended.
  4. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, folding gently to combine.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  8. Whip together the mascarpone cheese and espresso until fluffy for the filling.
  9. Slice off the tops of the cooled cupcakes and fill each with the mascarpone and espresso mixture.
  10. Dust the tops with cocoa powder before serving.
