425 grams icing sugar, (better if it is icing sugar)
85 grams cocoa powder, sugar-free
105 milliliters cow's milk, semi-skimmed
Preparation

We preheat the oven to 180º (160º if using a fan).
We prepare the cupcake tray with 12 paper cups (liners).
We sift the flour with the baking powder and cocoa in a bowl and set aside.
We beat the butter with the sugar until well combined and the mixture lightens.
We add the eggs, one at a time, beating until incorporated.
We add half of the flour and beat on low speed until incorporated.
Next, we add the milk mixed with the vanilla extract and beat again.
We add the other half of the flour and beat on low speed until the mixture is smooth. We distribute the mixture into the cups, filling them no more than 2/3 full.
We bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
We let the cupcakes cool in the mold for 5 minutes and then transfer them to a wire rack until completely cool.
While they cool, we make our mini churros: in a saucepan, we heat the water with a drop of oil and a pinch of salt.
When it boils, we add the flour all at once and stir quickly. A kind of “paste” will form.
We remove the saucepan from the heat and scoop the sticky dough with a wooden spoon into a piping bag fitted with a small star tip.
Next, we heat the oil in another pan. When it is very hot, we start to pipe our churros.
We will need at least one mini churro per cupcake.
As soon as the mini churros start to brown, we take them out and place them on paper towels to absorb the excess oil. Finally, we roll them in sugar.
To prepare the buttercream, we need to sift the icing sugar with the cocoa and place them in a bowl along with the butter and milk.
Covering the bowl, we beat on low speed for one minute. Then we increase the speed and beat for at least another 5 minutes on high speed. The buttercream will become creamy and a deep chocolate color.
And finally....ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
