Dark Chocolate Cupcakes: Recipe Alert!

YUM!
I am working on a recipe for a baking contest, so I wont give away all of the details just yet, but will give up the recipe for the cupcake itself. It's a new twist on an old classic. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (50 grams) heresy's special dark cocoa powder
1 cup (240 ml) boiling hot water
1 1/3 cups (175 grams) unbleached all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 375. In a small bowl, stir together the coco powder and boiling water until smooth. Set aside and let cool to room temperature. In another bowl whisk together flour, baking powder and salt and set aside. In your Kitchen Aide, beat butter until creamy. Add sugar and mix until well combined. Scrape sides and add eggs one at a time, mixing until well combined. Add vanilla. Add flour and coco mixers in three batches, beginning and ending with four. Mix well and scrape sides between each addition. Fill paper-lined muffin cup ¾ full and bake for 16-20 min.
