Franco-American chocolate cupcakes (Les cupcakes) from Gâteau: The Surprising Simplicity of French Cakes (page 128) by Aleksandra Crapanzano

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Good, solid cupcake that will pair well with coffee as it is not very sweet. I would love to come back to this with different chocolate and butter brands to get a difference in taste!

    This was good! Between the two extracts, this ended up tasting a little extracty. Not exactly bad, though. Boyfriend insisted on making a buttercream frosting with cream cheese, which was good.
