It all depends on the size of the batch you are making. Here is a basic chocolate cake recipe the can be used for cupcakes or regular cakes. 1 cup butter, 1 3/4 cup white sugar, 3 eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 1/2 cup milk, 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour, 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Set aside.In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing just until incorporated. Pour batter into prepared pan.Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.You can double or triple a recipe for the size you need, but keep in mind that some recipes do not multiply well and you will just have to make multiple single batches.

Yes you can, but to do this you have to replace some of the flour with cocoa powder. Generally you can work along the following line: if the vanilla cake recipe calls for 125g of flour, you can replace 25g of the flour with cocoa and then you would have a chocolate cake.

Does Nestle cocoa powder contain nuts?

Simple cocoa powder does not contain any dairy products, but only powdered, processed cocoa (cacao) beans. However, there are many commercial products with some version of "cocoa" in the name, such as "Hot Cocoa," "Cocoa Mix," or "Instant Cocoa" that do contain a high percentage of dairy. The safe thing to do is to read the ingredients listed on the product's label.
