Baking and Filling

  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and sugar until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vegetable oil until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with batter and bake for 18-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. While the cupcakes cool, whip mascarpone cheese with espresso until fluffy and creamy.
  7. Once cupcakes are cool, core the centers and fill with the mascarpone mixture, replacing the tops afterwards.
  8. Dust with cocoa powder for an elegant finish before serving.
