Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup cocoa powder
¾ teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups sugar
½ cup warm water
1 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup marshmallow cream
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
⅔ cup heavy cream
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Add the sugar and whisk to combine.
  • Add the warm water, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla and whisk until combined.
  • Line 2 muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Scoop the batter into prepared muffin tins, filling each cup a little more than halfway.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, until the tops of the cupcakes spring back when gently pressed. Let cool completely.
  • Make the marshmallow filling: In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form. Add the marshmallow cream and whip until stiff.
  • Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with a medium round tip or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
  • Use the end of a whisk or another utensil to push down the center of each cupcake.
  • Pipe the filling into the cupcakes, leveling off the tops if needed. Freeze for 15 minutes while you make the ganache and icing.
  • Make the ganache: Add the chocolate chips and heavy cream to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, until melted. Mix together until smooth.
  • Make the icing: In a medium bowl, stir together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. The icing should fall off the spatula in ribbons. If it is too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar.
  • Transfer the icing to a piping bag fitted with a small tip or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
  • Dip the top of each cupcake in the ganache, then set aside to dry for 10 minutes.
  • Pipe icing curls across the center of the cupcakes and let dry for 15 minutes at room temperature.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cupcake Recipes

Time 1h

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream
Easy White Icing
Sprinkles (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper liners.
  • Into a medium bowl, sift together cocoa, flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each, then beat in vanilla. With mixer on low speed, add flour mixture in two batches, alternating with sour cream and beginning and ending with flour.
  • Pour batter into cups, filling each 3/4 full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Cool in pan 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, then spread with Easy White Icing using a table knife or small offset spatula. Decorate with sprinkles, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your cupcakes. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cupcakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full: This will prevent the cupcakes from overflowing when they rise in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for chocolate cupcakes is 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Don't overbake the cupcakes: Overbaking will make the cupcakes dry. Bake them for just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

These chocolate cupcakes are rich, moist, and decadent. They are the perfect treat for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make these delicious cupcakes at home. So next time you have a chocolate craving, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
