Chocolate Cupcakes are the best eggless cupcake recipe and topped with M&Ms. A kid-friendly recipe loved by all. Easy to make and enjoy for a school break snack or a tiffin option.
Preheat oven to 200 °C. Grease a 9 muffin pan and line with liners. Beat the sugar and yogurt in a large bowl, for 5 minutes on high speed. Add baking powder and baking soda, beat in on low, and allow to stand for 3 minutes. You will find that bubbles appear. In a separate bowl, sift cocoa powder & flour together 2-3 times.
In the wet ingredient bowl, beat in the oil and vanilla extract. Next, slowly add the flour mixture in 4 lots, blending in well after each addition. Pour the batter in the prepared pan till about 3/4 level of each cup. Bake at 200 °C for 10 minutes, reduce temperature to 170 °C and bake for another 10-15 minutes or till a toothpick inserted into the cupcake comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes for 30 minutes and then overturn onto a plate.
Top with M&M's. AS many and as much you like.
