Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
-
Stir in the hot water until the batter is smooth.
-
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer the cupcakes to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, melted unsalted butter, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.

Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, frost them with the chocolate frosting.
