Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and granulated sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and vegetable oil until smooth.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring just until combined.
  5. Spoon the batter into prepared muffin tins, filling each liner about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-20 minutes.
  6. While cooling, whip the mascarpone cheese and espresso in a mixing bowl.
  7. Once the cupcakes have cooled, cut off the tops and hollow out a small portion of each cupcake. Fill with mascarpone mixture.
  8. Dust the tops of the cupcakes with cocoa powder before serving.
