Ingredients:

• 4 ounces Valrhona 75% – 85% cacao (or any good quality dark chocolate)
• 1.5 sticks butter
• 1-1/8 cups sugar
• 4 eggs
• 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour (I used two different kinds of wheat free)
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, unsweetened
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum

Directions:

1. Chop the chocolate and transfer into the bowl of a standing mixer.
2. Add the butter to the chocolate and place the bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir until the chocolate melts and the butter is combined.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar. Let the mixture cool for 10 minutes.
4. Measure out the gluten-free flour, 2 tablespoons cocoa, 3/4 teaspoon baking powder, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and the xanthan gum into a different small bowl.
5. Transfer the cooled chocolate/butter mixture to the electric mixer and beat for 3 minutes.
6. Add one egg at a time, mixing for 10 seconds between each.
7. Sift the gluten-free flour into one bowl and mix to combine.
8. Scoop into cupcake cups only 2/3s full. Bake all the cupcakes at 350 F for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Note: If the oven is not hot enough than these cupcakes may over-flow. One way to be safe is to either fill 2/3’s full or another trick I use is to preheat to 375, then drop the heat to 350 once I put the cupcakes into.
