Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Place paper liners in wells of Muffin Pan. Whisk flour and baking powder in Small Batter Bowl. Combine milk and vanilla in small bowl. In a 2qt mixing bowl, beat egg whites on high speed of electric mixer until stiff peaks form. In 4qt mixing bowl beat butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until fluffy; beat in sour cream until smooth. On medium speed, add flour mixture in three additions, alternating with milk mixture in two additions, mixing until smooth. Whisk in one-third of the egg whites. Fold in remaining egg whites using whisk. Using a large scoop, divide batter evenly among liners.
- Bake 17-20 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in centers comes out clean. Remove pan from oven to a cooling rack. Immediately snip a 1/2-inch-deep (1-cm) "x" into top of each cupcake using kitchen shears. Press one truffle into each cupcake until flush with top of cupcake. Remove cupcakes from pan. Cool 30 minutes or to room temperature. (Truffles will melt into cupcakes.).
- Meanwhile, for frosting, place white chocolate in microwave safe bowl, uncovered, on HIGH 1-1 1/2 minutes or until chocolate is mostly melted, stirring every 30 seconds. Let stand 3 minutes or until slightly cooled. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted chocolate, cream cheese, butter and vanilla; using clean beaters, beat on medium speed until well blended. Slowly add powdered sugar; beat well.
- Place frosting in a piping bag fitted with open star tip. Pipe frosting evenly around tops of cupcakes. Garnish cupcakes with chocolate curls.
CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE FILLING
This recipe is from Colette Peters, in a wonderful book called Cakes To Dream On. This is one of the many recipes I tested when making my daughter's first birthday cake. Fabulous filling, couldn't ask for any better. I made one batch using almond extract, and one using 1/2 vanilla and 1/2 orange extract.

Steps:
- Put the chocolate in a large bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the cream just until it starts to bubble.
- Pour the cream over the chocolate; make sure all the chocolate is covered by the cream (push some pieces down if you need to).
- Cover the bowl and let it sit there, undisturbed, for 10 minutes, until the chocolate has melted.
- Whisk the mixture until the chocolate is dark and shiny, then cool to room temperature, or stick it in the fridge until ready to use.
- If you refrigerate the filling before you put it on the cake, it will get very hard, and you'll need to pop it in the microwave for a few seconds to loosen it up.
- You can, of course, pour it over the top of cake while it's still warm for a beautiful, smooth, shiny ganache topping.

Tips:
- To ensure a smooth and lump-free truffle filling, use high-quality chocolate that contains at least 70% cocoa solids and make sure it is melted slowly and gently.
- If you don't have heavy cream, you can substitute it with an equal amount of milk and a tablespoon of butter.
- For a richer truffle filling, use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet chocolate.
- To add a touch of flavor to your truffle filling, you can add a teaspoon of instant coffee powder, a pinch of cinnamon, or a splash of vanilla extract.
- If you want to make your truffle filling ahead of time, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks or in the freezer for up to two months.
