Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a cupcake pan with paper liners.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time to the creamed butter mixture and mix thoroughly. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients, alternating with buttermilk until just combined.
  6. Fold in blackberries and chocolate chips gently to keep the fruit intact.
  7. Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with batter.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool the cupcakes in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
