Betty's "Buried Treasure" Chocolate Chunk Cupcakes - PCOS-Friendly Recipe

Betty demonstrates how to make "Buried Treasure" Chocolate Chunk Cupcakes. The "Buried Treasure" is the chocolate you find at the bottom after eating the delicate vanilla cupcake top. These cupcakes are made using chocolate "chunks," which are heavier than chocolate chips. You may change them to Chocolate Chip Cupcakes by substituting chocolate chips or mini chocolate chips in their place. When mini chips are used to make Chocolate Chip Cupcakes, the chips will be dispersed throughout the cupcakes. "Buried Treasure" Chocolate Chunk Cupcakes 2 cups all-purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1 ¼ cups sugar ½ cup butter, softened ½ cup water ¾ cup evaporated milk 2 egg whites 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup dark chocolate chunks (You may use chocolate chips, and you may choose to use milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate, instead of the dark chocolate chunks.) NOTE: Mini chocolate chips will remain evenly dispersed throughout the cupcakes, while regular-sized chunks or chips will tend to sink toward the bottom. In a large mixing bowl, stir together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 3 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 ¼ cups sugar. Add ½ cup butter and ½ cup water. Beat for 2 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed. Add ¾ cup evaporated milk, 2 egg whites, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat 2 minutes more. Fold in 1 cup chocolate chunks or chips. Spoon into muffin tins that have been lined with paper liners (or greased). Bake at 350 degrees (F) for about 20 minutes. Insert a toothpick into the deepest part of one of the cupcakes. If it comes out clean, the cupcakes are done. Let the cupcakes cool in the pan(s) on a cooling rack until they are cool (about 2 hours). Cool completely or refrigerate, if you plan to frost the cupcakes. This recipe will make 18 delicious cupcakes. Enjoy! I will be uploading an appropriate chocolate frosting for these cupcakes in the next video.
