Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your cupcake tray with liners.
  2. Mix all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat softened butter with eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and stir until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter into two bowls, adding melted dark chocolate to one and melted white chocolate to the other.
  6. Using two spoons, alternate batters in each liner and swirl with a toothpick for a marble effect.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Cool the cupcakes in the tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Frost once cool.
