Devil’s Food Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting 令人着魔的巧克力杯子蛋糕
I didn’t hesitate to Bake Along with Lena, Joyce and Zoe when I saw the theme for the week from 23rd July to 1st Aug was Devil’s Food Cupcakes, I immediately wanted to bake along with them too. So here are my cupcakes with rich chocolate frosting. They were wonderfully delicious, moist and not too sweet and still stayed soft in the fridge even until the next day. As this is a very easy recipe, I’ll certainly have no qualms baking these cupcskes, again and again.

Hi Ann, I would like to make it to 8″ cake. How much I have to put on?
Hi Ashley, I’m not very sure how much ingredients to put into a 8 inch cake pan… maybe double or triple but it takes longer time to bake a bigger cake . Also the cake will not be that moist after baking for a long time.
