Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (for frosting)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
- Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl until well combined.
- Cream 1/2 cup of softened butter with 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy—about 2-3 minutes.

- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with 1/2 cup of milk. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Fill the cupcake liners with the batter and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let them cool completely in the pan before transferring to a wire rack.
- Make the frosting by beating together 1/2 cup of softened butter and 1/2 cup of brown sugar until well combined. Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of milk until smooth.
- Scoop out a small portion of each cupcake to create a well and fill it with edible cookie dough.
