Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chai Chocolate Cupcakes Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C) and lining a muffin tin with 10 cheerful paper liners.
Step 2
Next, letâs create a luscious chocolate mixture.
Step 3
In a double boiler, gently melt the butter and chopped chocolate over simmering water, stirring frequently until it transforms into a smooth, velvety blendâthis should take about 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 4
Remember to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula to keep everything from scorching.
Step 5
While thatâs melting, letâs add a delightful twist to our batter.
Step 6
Open the chai tea bags and pour the fragrant contents into a spice grinder.
Step 7
Give it a quick whirl for about 5 to 10 seconds until you have a fine powder that captures all those warm spices.
Step 8
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sifted flour, sugar, and your freshly ground chai tea.
Step 9
Now, itâs time to bring in the eggsâadd them one at a time, whisking until the batter is smooth and silky after each addition.
Step 10
Stir in a splash of vanilla extract for that extra touch of flavor.
Step 11
Once your chocolate mixture is ready, pour it into the batter and gently stir until just combinedâbe careful not to overmix; we want to keep that lovely texture.
Step 12
Now, itâs time to share the loveâdivide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each one to about two-thirds full.
Step 13
Pop them into your preheated oven and bake for around 25 minutes.
Step 14
Youâll know theyâre ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the tops are glossy with charming little cracks.
Step 15
As soon as theyâre done, remove the cupcakes from the tin and let them cool on a wire rack.
Step 16
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as you anticipate the delicious treats youâve just created!.
