Creamy Chocolate-Filled Cupcakes
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just blended.
-
Fill each cupcake liner halfway with the batter. Place a few chocolate chips in the center of each cupcake, then cover with more batter until the liners are about 2/3 full.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it starts to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth.
-
Let the chocolate ganache cool for about 15 minutes, then transfer it to a piping bag fitted with a small round tip.
-
Insert the tip into the center of each cupcake and squeeze gently to fill with the chocolate ganache.
-
In a separate bowl, sift the powdered sugar. Roll the filled cupcakes in the powdered sugar to coat.
-
Garnish with sprinkles as desired.
-
Allow the cupcakes to rest for 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
