Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F (175 C) degrees. Line a 12-well muffin tin with cupcake papers.

Step 2

In a large heat-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and the cocoa powder. Then pour the hot water over the top to combine. Add the sugar and oil, whisk to combine. Add the eggs and whisk until smooth. Add the vanilla. Set aside.

Step 3

In a smaller bowl sift together the flour, salt, and baking soda. Add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture, in thirds, stirring gently with a wire whisk until combined.

Step 4

Fill the cupcake wells ¾ of the way full. Bake 17 mins or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.

Step 5

To make the frosting combine cream cheese, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar in a bowl and with an electric mixer beat until combined.

Step 6

Add heavy cream and vanilla and beat until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Fit a pastry bag with your favorite star tip, pipe frosting, and garnish with chocolate curls made with a potato peeler and a dark chocolate bar.
