- 3 teaspoon vanilla
- Preheat oven to 400º F.
- Place cupcake liners in muffin tin. Spray lightly with cooking spray.

- Combine the chocolate mixture with the remaining milk mixture and add to the batter. Mix about 30 seconds.
- Distribute batter evenly to the 12 muffin cups. Batter will be very wet.
