List of Ingredients
1 cup flour
1/2 cup baking cocoa (get lumps out)
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup hot water
1/2 cup oil
1 large egg
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
Recipe
Preheat oven to 375. Line 12 regular sized muffin cups with paper or foil liners.
Combine flour, cocoa, sugar, baking soda and salt in a blender container. Cover with the lid and blend on medium speed until well blended. Pour in the water, oil, egg and vanilla. Cover with the lid and blend on medium-high speed until smooth and well blended, stopping to scrape down the sides once or twice. Pour into the muffin cups, dividing evenly. Bake approx 17-19 mins or until a toothpick inserted into center of one cupcake comes out clean. Cool and frost
For the frosting:
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 cup sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Melt chocolate and butter in the microwave. Add condensed milk, corn syrup, vanilla and salt. Whisk until well blended. Set aside at room temperature, whisking frequently. It will thicken as it cools. When completely cool, cover with plastic wrap until ready to frost.
