Divvies Chocolate Cupcakes!

Divvies made to share creations offers dairy, egg, peanut, and tree nut free desserts for those with food allergies! Below is a recipe for their chocolate cupcake dessert!
They shared their recipe with millions on the Martha Stewart Show, and now I would like to pass it on to the FoodAllergyTalk community!


"This allergen-free recipe for chocolate cupcakes is courtesy of Divvies Bakery founder Lori Sandler.

To ensure that your cupcakes are free of milk, eggs, tree nuts, and peanuts, ingredients used should not contain any of these foods and should not have been manufactured in a facility that produces products that contain these foods. Check the packaging every time a purchase is made on even a familiar ingredient, as manufacturing procedures can change."

Ingredients

Makes 1 dozen
1 1/2 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups water

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners; set aside.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

3. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together oil, vinegar, vanilla, and water until well combined. Add flour mixture to the mixer and mix until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a spatula as necessary. Batter should look and feel more watery than normal cake batters.

4. Pour batter into prepared muffin tin, filling each cup 1/2 to 3/4 full. Transfer to oven and bake, rotating pan halfway through cooking, until a cake tester inserted into the center of one of the cupcakes comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.

5. Immediately remove cupcakes from muffin tin and transfer to a wire rack. Let cool completely before frosting.
