# Ingredients:

→ Cupcake Base

01 - 3/4 cup water
02 - 1/4 cup yogurt
03 - 1/4 cup oil
04 - 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
05 - 1 tsp white or cider vinegar
06 - 1 cup spelt, white, or gluten-free flour
07 - 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
08 - 2 tbsp Dutch cocoa powder
09 - 3/4 cup sugar, unrefined if desired
10 - 1/2 tsp salt
11 - 1/2 tsp baking soda
12 - Oreo frosting (store-bought or homemade)

# Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a cupcake pan with liners.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together water, yogurt, oil, vanilla, and vinegar. Allow the mixture to sit for a few minutes.
03 - Sift together the flour, cocoa powders, sugar, salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl.
04 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until evenly mixed. Avoid overmixing.
05 - Smooth the batter into the lined cupcake pan, filling each liner about two-thirds of the way full.
06 - Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or 10 minutes for mini cupcakes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
07 - Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. For best results, allow them to sit overnight for easier peeling of the liners and enhanced flavor.

# Notes and Tips:

01 - These cupcakes taste even better the next day.
02 - Only fill the cupcake liners two-thirds of the way to allow for rising.
