1 cup all-purpose flour a key base for a soft and fluffy texture
0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder enhances the rich chocolate flavor without adding sweetness
1 cup granulated sugar sweetens the batter to balance the dark chocolate's intensity
0.5 teaspoon baking powder ensures your cupcakes rise perfectly
0.5 teaspoon baking soda helps in quick leavening and moisture retention
0.25 teaspoon salt boosts flavors, enhancing the overall taste
0.5 cup unsalted butter softened for richness and a tender crumb
2 large eggs bind the ingredients together while adding moisture
1 teaspoon vanilla extract infuses a warm, inviting flavor
0.5 cup buttermilk adds essential moisture and a slight tang

1 cup fresh blackberries their tartness contrasts beautifully with the chocolate
0.5 cup dark chocolate chips opt for a good quality for maximum flavor

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a cupcake pan with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add softened unsalted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and buttermilk to the dry ingredients and beat until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold in fresh blackberries and dark chocolate chips into the batter.
Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full and bake for about 20 minutes.
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; if it comes out clean, they’re ready.
Cool the cupcakes on a wire rack for 5-10 minutes before removing them from the pan.

Use quality ingredients for the best flavor and avoid overmixing to keep the texture light.
