Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Butter 12 muffin-tin wells or line them with paper muffin cups.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; reserve.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer set on medium-high speed, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat well. Beat in the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternately with the buttermilk.
Spoon into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about two-thirds full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 16 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack and let cool to room temperature.
