Step-by-Step Instructions for Chocolate Tiramisu Cupcakes

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until combined.
  • Add the egg, whole milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture and mix gently until just combined.
  • Gradually stir in boiling water until the batter is smooth.
  • Carefully pour the batter into cupcake liners, filling each about ⅔ full.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  • Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a separate bowl, beat together mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and brewed espresso until smooth.
  • Frost the cooled cupcakes with the mascarpone frosting.
  • Dust the tops with cocoa powder before serving.
