Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and prepare a cupcake pan with paper liners.
Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium mixing bowl.
Cream the butter and sugar in a separate large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
One at a time, beat in the eggs, followed by the milk and vanilla extract.
Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Fill the prepared cupcake liners about 3/4 full with the batter.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the chocolate icing, combine the powdered sugar, melted butter, cocoa powder, milk, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until smooth.
Spread the icing on top of the cooled cupcakes and top with the crushed walnuts.
