You will love these rich chocolately cosmic cupcakes! 

Cupcakes. Little delicious morsels of cake. Perfect for dessert, snack, school bake sales and birthday parties. Growing up, my mom wasn't much of a baker. Her version of baking cupcakes was buying a box of chocolate flavored Jiffy cupcake mix and a can of chocolate frosting and calling it a day. I didn't mind though. My mom rarely baked, so when she did, it was a special treat!

After my husband and I got married, I'd buy those yummy little Martha White baking mixes and call it a day. Heck, I still use them occasionally (even the Jiffy kind every once in a while) but now I find myself actually wanting to make more baked goods using homemade ingredients. Yes, I like to save time, but these chocolate cupcakes are quick to make (one bowl!) and I promise you'll save this recipe for future use, as it can also double as a chocolate cake recipe as well!

So, what's better than some homemade chocolate cupcakes? How about adding a homemade chocolate ganache with Wilton rainbow sprinkles just like those Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies you see lining the snack shelf at the grocery store! I'll admit, I ate them. I probably still would. But, for now, I'll just stick with the homemade cosmic cupcakes you see here.
