How to make chocolate cupcake recipe using a pancake mix

Chocolate cupcakes in just over an hour? Learn how to make chocolate cupcake recipe using a pancake mix. Classic chocolate cupcakes are always a winner in birthday parties and small gatherings. But they’re too costly to order from a baking shop and if you have the time, it would be more cost effective if you do the cupcakes yourself.

Making cupcakes is easy with either a big oven or even an oven toaster.

I attended one of the cooking classes of Chef TJ of The Maya Kitchen and we learned how to make chocolate cupcake recipe using a pancake mix. We made these cupcakes with kids so, totally easy and doable even with the help of the little tots.

This cupcake recipe comes with easy frosting too! If you have no mixer, I suggest the chocolate frosting, otherwise, I love the buttercream.
