Ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted. 1 cup granulated sugar. 2 large eggs. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/2 cup butterscotch chips. 1/2 cup chopped walnuts optional.
Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C and line a cupcake tin with paper liners. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, mix the melted butter and sugar until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in the butterscotch chips and chopped walnuts if using. Scoop the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, you can optionally frost or decorate the cupcakes as desired. Enjoy your delicious Butterscotch Brownie Cupcakes!
