Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until it’s light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry mix to your wet ingredients, alternating with the milk.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about ¾ full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely on a wire rack.
Filling and Topping
- In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, vanilla pudding mix, and 1 cup of milk. Whip until fluffy.
- Cut a small cone shape from the center of each cupcake and fill with the cream mixture.
- In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it’s just about to boil, then pour it over the chocolate chips in a bowl. Let it sit for a few minutes and then stir until smooth.
- Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the filled cupcakes, letting it ooze down the sides.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. They are best enjoyed within a few days. For an extra twist, add almond extract to the filling or chopped nuts on top of the ganache.
