Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

Today we are going to appreciate the chocolate cupcake underneath the cute decorations because the cake needs a little love too people!

1 box Devil’s Food cake mix

1 small box (4 serving size) instant chocolate pudding mix

1 1/4 cups chocolate chips

4 eggs

3/4 cup canola oil

3/4 cup warm water

8 ounces sour cream

1  Preheat oven to 325.  Line cupcake pan with paper liners.

2  In a mixing bowl, combine cake mix and pudding mix and whisk together.

3  Place chocolate chips in a small bowl.  Stir in 1 tablespoon of the cake/pudding mixes and stir until chips are lightly coated with the powder.  (This helps keep the chips from sinking to the bottom of your cupcakes.)

4  Add eggs, oil, water, and sour cream to the cake/pudding mixes in your mixing bowl and beat for about 2 minutes or until well combined but do not over beat.

5  Scoop into liners and bake 20 – 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.  Cool completely before decorating.

Makes about 2 1/2 dozen cupcakes
