Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a muffin pan by lightly greasing it or lining it with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, combine sugar, oil, and vanilla extract. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the canned pumpkin.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until the batter is smooth.
  5. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each muffin cup about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips

  1. Do not over-mix the batter as it can make the cakes tough.
  2. Use a scoop or a large spoon to ensure even distribution of the batter.
  3. Check the cakes a few minutes before the stated baking time to avoid over-baking.
