    List of Ingredients




    6 Tbl. unsalted butter
    11 oz. semisweet chocolate coarsely chopped, divided
    3 large eggs
    1 c. sugar
    3/4 c. all-purpose flour
    1/4 c. unsweetened cocoa

    1 c. coarsely chopped walnuts (opt)
    Nonstick cooking spray
    Mrs. Milman's Chocolate Frosting (recipe follows)

    Recipe



    Heat oven to 350 degrees and line a 12-count muffing tin with cupcake liners and spray with non-stick spray; set aside.

    In a saucepan over low heat, melt butter and 8 oz. of chocolate; stir until smooth. Remove from heat and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar. Add flour, cocoa, and baking soda. Stir in melted chocolate until combined. Stir in remaining 3 ounces of chocolate and nuts if desired.

    Using a 2-ounce ice cream scoop, fill each liner 3/4 full with batter. Bake until a firm crust forms on cupcakes, about 20 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes from pan and continue to cool on a wire rack. Ice cupcakes with a generous amount of Mrs. Milman's Chocolate Frosting.
