Hershey's Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes with Creamy Chocolate Frosting

Sometimes the best recipes come from the back of the box. I have made a chocolate chip cookie recipe for years and everyone says how amazing they are. Well - it's just the one on the back of the butter box! Here's a cupcake for you that will melt in your mouth. I have been looking for a legit cupcake recipe. All the ones I have tried are nothing compared to this baby. They puff up perfectly, cooked all the way thru and that icing.... So here ya go - the cupcake recipe from the back of the Hershey's Cocoa Powder box!! INGREDIENTS 2 cups of sugar, 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 2/3 cups cocoa powder, 1-1/2 tsp baking powder, 1-1/2 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp salt, 2 eggs, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 2 tsp vanilla extract, 1 cup boiling water DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350. Mix all ingredients together. Add boiling water at the end. Mix all together - batter will be very thin. Grease a muffin pan and fill each almost to the top. Bake for 20 minutes - check to make sure they are finished by inserting a toothpick in the middle. Creamy Chocoalte Frosting 1 stick butter - melted, 3 1/2 cups powdered sugar 1/3 cup milk, 2/3 cups cocoa powder, 2 tsp vanilla extract, Mix all together until creamy. Let sit in fridge for about an hour. Frost cupcakes when they are completely cooled.
