Description

Enjoy these deligthful, simple to make cupcakes. Recipe courtesy of Hannah Messinger.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup fresh, hot, medium roast coffee
  • 3 cups (about 13.5 ounces) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 sticks (1 1/2 cups) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups plus 2T raw cane sugar
  • 4 large eggs, at room temp
  • 1T vanilla
  • 1 cup full fat greek yogurt (or sour cream)

Chocolate Ganache

  • 1 pound bittersweet chocolate chips
  • 3T light corn syrup (if you don’t want to use corn syrup, whip up a batch of this)
  • 2 1/3 cups heavy whipping cream
  • splash of Kahlua*

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 and line cupcake tin.
  2. Whisk coffee and cocoa together in a measuring cup until smooth. In a small bowl, whisk flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. In a large bowl, beat butter with sugar until cool to the touch. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla. Add coffee mixture. Finally, alternate folding in flour and sour cream, starting and ending with flour. Fill papers 3/4 of the way full and bake for 20 minutes, turning the pan half way through cooking.
  3. Top with chocolate ganache (recipe follows) and chocolate shavings.

Ganache

  1. Put everything in a double boiler and whisk until smooth. Place in the fridge and whisk every 5-10 minutes until ganache begins to hold its shape, then use.

Notes

* I removed about 1.5 Tablespoons of cream and replaced it with Kahlua.
