    Method: 

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 12 muffin tins with paper liners.

    Mix the cane sugar with flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter and vanilla. Pour liquid ingredients into the dry and beat with a wire whisk for 2 minutes. Add boiling water and beat for another 2 minutes.
